What is the difference between Level 4 only and the assessment up to Level 6?
Level 4 only assesses ICAO Level 4 exclusively and costs €159. The ICAO Level 4 · 5 · 6 option costs €189 and assesses proficiency up to Level 6. In both cases, your result depends on your demonstrated skills. A valid referral code reduces either price by €10 for a new candidate.
Do I have to buy an English course before the exam?
No. If you already have the required English skills, you can book and take the exam directly. A preparation course may help you improve your English, but purchasing one is not a requirement for taking the assessment.
How do I apply to my CAA for a licence endorsement?
Once you receive your certificate, you can apply to your Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) for a language proficiency endorsement on your licence. Submitting an application and receiving the endorsement are separate steps: acceptance, processing and timing follow your authority’s requirements. Tell us which authority issued your licence before the session so we can check the applicable requirements.
Is the exam fully online?
Yes. The session takes place remotely. After booking, you receive the link to complete registration; Edoardo will send your exam joining instructions separately.
Who can take the exam?
The exam is open to student pilots without a licence, general aviation pilots, commercial pilots, helicopter pilots, cabin crew and ground staff. The assessment focuses on language proficiency.
Is Level 6 guaranteed?
No. With the ICAO Level 4 · 5 · 6 option, your awarded level depends on the proficiency demonstrated. Level 4 only assesses Level 4 exclusively and does not award Levels 5 or 6. Passing the exam is not guaranteed.
How long is the appointment?
The exam lasts up to 30 minutes. Your booking shows the date and time of your session.
