Radiotelephony English for Air Traffic Controllers

Radiotelephony English for Air Traffic Controllers is a 125-hour course for air traffic controllers who need to improve their English for communication in radiotelephony in order to meet the ICAO Language Proficiency Requirements.

There are two course components: a workbook, consisting of 65 hours of learning material and an e–learning component, consisting of 60 hours of learning material. All the materials have been developed by a team of aviation curriculum writers in conjunction with subject matter experts from Air Services Australia to ensure accuracy and industry-relevance.

The course takes a communicative approach to language learning and focuses on communications specifically for air traffic controllers. The course develops communicative proficiency in phraseology, for communication in routine situations, and plain English, for non-routine communications.

The course can be studied on an intensive or part-time basis, with up to 75% of the course available for independent study.

Delivery options are flexible, with up to 75% independent study: for example, 3 hours of teacher-led instruction and 9.5 hours of independent study per week.
