The exams

Your ground radio licence, examined by us

Here at Easy PPL Ground School we have our own CAA-authorised Radio Operator's Certificate of Competence examiners for the Air Ground Communications Service, who carry out the written and practical exams you need for a ground radio licence (ROCC AGCS).

Your questions

Everything you need to know

  1. 1Where can I do the exams?

    We can usually arrange a suitable location in Essex or on the Essex and Suffolk border, or, if you prefer, the examiner can come to you.
  2. 2Are there any prerequisites?

    You must have been suitably trained and reached an acceptable standard to attempt the exam. The courses that set you up for it are right here:

  3. 3What does the exam involve?

    A written paper of 25 long-answer questions in 60 minutes, followed by an oral (practical) test. The written paper must be taken first; if both parts are taken on the same day, the written paper is marked after the practical test. Once the examiner has decided the outcome, the details go to the CAA for verification.
  4. 4Can I do the exam remotely, on Zoom?

    Unfortunately not. The UK CAA has decided the practical exams must be done in person: online and remote exams are strictly not allowed.
  5. 5When will I know if I've passed?

    We'll tell you straight away at the end of the exam, and debrief you fully: the topics and areas that went well, and those that might need improving.
