Hi, Just got a letter through the post stating that my application has bree accepted for the NATS trainee air traffic controler course and that im invited to a test date. Just wondering if anyone knows anything about these days, what they entail, and any other helpful hints, tips etc!
thanks in advance!

Basic written aptitude tests, boxes, commands, mental arithmetic... plus if you get called for the second stage, computer testing.

Don't forget Eurocontrol also take on trainee ATCers. Tests are all computer based. The money with Eurocontrol is much better than with NATS.

Me = ex Eurocontrol trainee.

TicTac,
you appear to be the only person on this website that has received any notice from NATS, and they didn't seem very sure of timings on the phone today
How long have you been waiting for?
I suggest this post is moved to the ATC forum

I received my confirmation at the end of november, sent my application off towards the beginning of october, the letter says that as yet a date for the tests has to be confirmed, has anyone else recieved this letter?
