Latitude is delighted to have been selected by EFATAM to provide aviation English test development training on its behalf for l'Agence pour la Sécurité de la Navigation Aérienne en Afrique et à Madagascar (ASECNA).
This autumn, two three-week intensive courses for ATCOs tasked with administering ASECNA's in-house language testing programme will be delivered in the historic city of Norwich in the UK in partnership with Norwich Institute for Language Education (NILE).
Training will cover the fundamentals of language testing and test development in the context of the ICAO Language Proficiency Requirements with specific reference to ICAO Doc 10197: Test Design Guidelines. The participants will benefit from NILE's first class training environment and language immersion through homestay accommodation and aeronautical site visits as well as an advanced training syllabus equipping ASECNA with the knowledge and skills to prepare and deliver language testing and assessment for operations personnel across the organisation’s 17 member states.
We are very proud to be working in support of safe radiotelephony communications in Africa.
