May I undertake an assessment with an overseas language assessment centre and have the result endorsed in my Australian flight crew licence?
No. CASA only accepts assessment reports from its approved ELP assessors, who are all based in Australia. CASA has not approved any overseas based ELP assessor. However, a couple of CASA approved (Australian-based) ELP specialist centres have licensed overseas agents. Subject to confirmation of their bono fides by the parent organizations here in Australia, CASA may consider accepting assessments conducted by these overseas centres. CASA acceptance of ELP assessments by these licensed overseas agents is not automatic and shall be solely at the discretion of CASA. Each application shall be assessed on its merits. Note: ASL in New Zealand is not approved.’ Though CASA has approved some ELP specialist centres in Australia, these centres may have specific ‘tests which are yet to receive CASA approval, and thus won’t be accepted by CASA.
