LPE EXAM

For the Language Proficiency Exam we use a modern and user friendly test which is accredited under Approval number DK.LAB.017 in all EASA countries and many more. ATC-Communication tested in the meantime over 4500 pilots with very good results. For ATC personnel we have the ATCO version of the LPE.

The test is fully online and can be done any time. You need a computer with internet + a webcam and a microphone (built in most of the laptops).

Before starting the test you must upload a scan of your passport for identification and during the test you get an aviation related interview and you have to answer pre-recorded questions.

During the test the candidate must show that he is able to communicate in English in an Aviation Environment. The price of the test is €164,-

How does it work:

1. You will be presented with three on screen pictures randomly selected from our database, all showing aviation themes. Use as many words as possible to describe what you see.

2. Answer the questions generated by the online interface. You will be asked a number of different questions by the “virtual interviewer”. You choose when the question shall start playing, and then you must start recording your answer. It is important that you answer with long sentences and NOT only “Yes” or “No” or very short sentences. Remember, it is your language skills that will be evaluated and not the content of what you say.

3. Perform a simulated ATC communication with read back on the basis of the scenario created in the online module of the test. That will enable us to assess your English language skills. Your answers will be recorded and later assessed by an Authorized Language Assessor.

4. Schedule and perform a live online video interview. The language assessor will ask a series of questions related to the briefing package and to your role in aviation. You will not be asked any complicated technical questions and you will not be tested in knowledge. Duration of the live interview will be approximately 15 minutes.

You will receive information about how to connect to the interview during the booking process. A stable internet connection that supports video calls is required. The video interview can be performed from either a mobile device with a forward-facing camera or a computer/laptop with a webcam.

Mail or call if you have questions.

LPE EXAM TIPS

How to make a successful test

  1. DONT USE FIREFOX
    Avoid using Firefox as your internet browser. Some users have experienced problems when using Firefox.
  2. THE WEBCAM
    Check that youre facing the web cam from a distance of approx. 50-80 cm, and your face is clearly shown. Make sure your Internet connection is broadband.
  3. DO NOT WEAR ANY SUNGLASSES
    Caps or other headwear that will prevent our assessor from positively identifying you compared to the photo in the passport.
  4. CHOOSE A GOOD LOCATION
    Make sure you are in a quiet location and no other persons are in the room. Switch off any radio, MP3 or TV set in the room. There cannot be other people in the room when you perform the test.
  5. YOUR ANSWERS
    Avoid very short or "yes" and "no" answers. We have designed open work related questions; just answer these questions as if you were talking to a person in front of you. Give a full and rich answer by using as many words as you can; the more words you use, the higher the test quality.
  6. SAY AGAIN
    If you want to hear a question again, press the "Say again" tab on the screen. This will not affect your grade.
  7. RELAX
    Just relax and pretend you are talking to another person in front of you on the other side of the screen.
  8. ITS NOT ABOUT THE RIGHT ANSWER
    We are not testing your knowledge but we do test your understanding of a question. If you get a question where you are not sure whether you know the correct answer; simply answer to the best of your knowledge. Example: Let\'s say you are to explain the difference between Vx and Vy; we do expect that you talk about climb gradients or that you explain why you don\'t remember this.
  9. USE PEN AND PAPER
    You will get 10 randomly selected work related questions and a simulated flight from A to B where you have to read back the ATC clearances - approx. 25 ATC read backs - some are taxi clearances and others are only a flight level. As in real life it is recommended that you have a pen and piece of paper ready to takes notes for the ATC clearances.
  10. ATC READ BACK
    Don\'t worry if you think you have failed to answer a question or an ATC read back. We are using all your answers and read backs to evaluate your proficiency and one failed or short answered question will not necessarily affect your grade.
  11. STANDARD PHRASEOLOGY
    We encourage that you review the latest information on standard phraseology, it can be found on various sites on the Internet.

We would like to emphasize one aspect of correct phraseology - the use of the word "CLEARED".

To prevent possible misunderstandings the word "CLEARED" should only be used for:

- Take off and Landing clearance
- Approach clearance
- Airway / En-route clearance

CLEARED should not be used for crossing of runways, taxi instructions, descent and climb but be limited to the three clearance types above.
