ATC Training Change

Effective 8 December 2024

At this time local training applications have been suspended to all who are not already actively training, unless the following new eligibility requirements are met:

Eligibility

  • Must be at least a TL1 on the Community Forum
  • Previously in the ATC Recruiting process and was unsuccessful with 3 practical test attempts
  • Completed required 90 day cooldown period following unsuccessful round of ATC recruitment testing
  • If IFATC, must meet all ATC Officer requirements outlined in 1A.6.3 of the ATC manual.

Note that ATC Recruitment is still open and users may join IFATC. To prepare for tests, see resources outlined in recruitment topic.

These changes are in effect to focus training efforts in-house on IFATC member’s radar training. Due to the high radar training demand and limited resources, local training will be limited.

All trainees currently on the waitlist awaiting local training will be privately notified of the pause.

Thank you for your understanding!

Please arrange such a thing as well

I have a question. I passed my ATC written test and got in touch with my recruiter and we went back and forth about a time to do the practical test but he hasn’t responded to my request in over 10 days, what should I do? My recruiters name is NightHawk.

350

Hello, I will direct this message to NightHawk internally and hopefully he will get back to you as soon as possible!

351

Thank you. Should it normally take this long to schedule the training or is it just something on his end?

352

No, no response within 10 days is not normal. I want to assume he is just busy in real life but I don’t know for sure

353

Thank you. Is there any chance I can get a new recruiter if he doesn’t respond to you within 24 hours?

354

No need, he just told me he will get back to you as soon as possible!

355

Alright he still hasn’t responded yet.

356

Hey there,
I’d like to apply as IFATC and the system said, I am not meeting community TL1, but I am, don’t I? 😊🙈

All other requirements are being met.

Thank you for your help.
