FAA Licence

It's not the fact of holding the license, rather the training in the applicable subjects and areas of knowledge required. The FAA has the only internationally recognized syllabus which covers all areas in depth. In fact it is a degree situation at various establishments such as Sheffield and San Jose Tech in the US. The status is a degree in Aviation Studies. If only Cranfield could implement a similar recognized scheme, maybe the powers that be would wake the heck up! It could become a centre of excellence with the EEU for such Flight Dispatcher qualifications, one hopes before I go punting with St Peter they will!
