Try an EASA Part 66 Licence with appropriate type ratings....see caa.co.uk for details....

Didnt know ICAO did aviation training approval??

While I would never put anyone down who is trying to better themselves, I think if you want to transfer your qualifications to the UK your probably going to have a lot of work too do!

SpannersatKL is right in what he says, if you want a licensed job in the UK you need a Part-66 from one of the EASA member states. To apply for the exams you would need to be over 21 & be able to demonstrate four and a half years experience on aircraft appropriate to the category that you are applying for.

If you don't have the experience you could go for a suitably approved, either Part-147 or CAA apprenticeship course which if you were successful results in a susspended license, suspended until you have the time-on-spanners necessary to get a full license.

I would suggest that you may find it hard to get a job in the UK without a license, and it may be difficult to get an un-licensed position coming from a country outside of Europe.

Good luck in your efforts

According the CAA website and the ELGD ( Engineer Licensing Guidance Document ) they will NOT Give credit or exemptions from the basic License . So think carefully before you start , there will be a lot of work and there is a time limit on each module passed...........
