Sabena Flight Academy, one of Europe’s most respected Aviation and Pilot Academies, has recently been officially approved to perform certified ICAO English Aviation tests. Besides the testing module Sabena Flight Academy created a modular Aviation English Language Training, which can be used as a stand alone training course for all aviation students or passionates, or which can be used for ICAO language testing preparation.

Language Proficiency test

To create a quality testing system Sabena Flight Academy has teamed up with Ordinate Corporation, a leading language testing organisation. Based on ICAO guidelines the test focuses on 6 criteria, assessing both speaking and listening proficiency, in an aviation related environment.

The 6 ICAO criteria (Pronunciation, Structure, Vocabulary, Fluency, Comprehension and Interactions) will be measured over the telephone using the Ordinate automated testing system. This easy-to-use and highly reliable test is available for both aviation professionals and recreational aviators. Samples of the test can be found through www.ordinate.com.

Testing is possible at our training facility at Brussels Airport, every weekday from 9.00 till 16.30.
The test consists of a 15 min. practice test to learn how the tests works and a 30 min. official certification test.
After successful completion, you immediately get an official Civil Aviation Certificate. With this certificate you can then go to your Civil Aviation Authority to have your licence endorsed.
How to prepare? Before the test you will get preparation time and all necessary information concerning the test. The test is constructed to assess speaking and listening abilities. Although the test is set in an aviation context, this is not a phraseology test.

What’s the price? Upon confirmation of the testing date, payment of 155* € is requested. Proof of payment is mandatory to perform the test. (* 21% VAT included).

Language Training

Sabena Flight Academy has great confidence that there is a real need for English Aviation training created by Aviation and Language specialists. Therefore we have decided to create our own training courses, composed by Language AND Aviation Training specialists. This training can be given at your location, or at one of the 28 CAE Training Centres all over the Globe.
