Davor Kusec 990407 Posted December 15, 2010 at 05:44 PM Posted December 15, 2010 at 05:44 PM Although Ernesto has pointed you in the right direction to joining VATEUD, remember, if you want to become an ATC in a particular ARTCC/FIR, you first need to be a part of that ARTCC's division (Ie; VATEUD, VATUSA, etc..,). You can't just join an ARTCC/FIR without being a member of the division that the ARTCC/FIR belongs to. You can find the different divisions at the top right of the main VATSIM website page (click on the region on the map).

Johan Grauers Posted December 15, 2010 at 08:50 PM Posted December 15, 2010 at 08:50 PM For english, guys, I'm basically offering help, sorry for writing in Swedish here. All I'm writing below can be found in english here: http://www.vaccsca.org/?page_id=6 Som sagt, allt i denna posten kommer härifrån: http://www.vaccsca.org/?page_id=6 För att kontrollera i Sverige går du med i VACCSCA (www.vaccsca.org). Sedan tar du Eurotest på http://eurotest.gotdns.com/ Testet är väldigt basic och handlar främst om Code of conduct och vanligt folkvett. Det är open book så det är helt okej att googla eller slå upp svaren på frågorna i olika dokument. samt tar kontakt med Daniel Klepp (vår Training director) på [email protected] I det mailet skriver du ditt Vatsim ID, vilket land du vill träna och att du är ny student (gör det på engelska, för formalitets skull främst). Sedan kommer du få en mentor tilldelad som kommer lära upp dig som S2 student i Sverige, har du några frågor så får du gärna kontakta mig via PM eller på [email protected] Hälsningar Johan Johan Grauers Event Coordinator - vACC Scandinavia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
