CONVERSION OF NATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS

This Subpart provides the requirements for converting national qualifications to aircraft maintenance licences.

CONVERSION OF NATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS

EXAMINATION CREDITS

BCAR to EASA PART66 (JAR66) Licence Conversion

 

 

PART66 (JAR66).B.300 General

a)       The competent authority may only perform the conversion specified in 66.A.70 in accordance with a conversion report prepared pursuant to paragraph PART66 (JAR66).B.305 or PART66 (JAR66).B.310, as applicable.

b)       The conversion report shall be either developed by the competent authority or approved by the competent authority.

PART66 (JAR66).B.305 Conversion report for national qualifications

The report shall describe the scope of each type of qualification and show to which aircraft maintenance licence it will be converted, which limitation will be added and the PART 66 module/subjects on which examination is needed to ensure conversion to the aircraft maintenance licence without limitation, or to include an additional (sub-) category. The report shall include a copy of the existing regulation defining the licence categories and scopes.

PART66 (JAR66).B.310 Conversion report for approved maintenance organisations authorisations

For each approved maintenance organisation concerned, the report shall describe the scope of each type of authorisation and show to which aircraft maintenance licence it will be converted, which limitation will be added and the module/ subjects on which examination is needed to convert to the licence, or to include an additional (sub-)category. The report shall include a copy of the relevant approved maintenance organisation's procedures for the qualification of certifying staff, on which the conversion process is based.

SUBPART E

EXAMINATION CREDITS

This Subpart provides the requirements for granting examination credits in accordance with 66.A.25(b).

PART66 (JAR66).B.400 General

c)       The competent authority may only grant examination credit on the basis of an examination credit report prepared in accordance with PART66 (JAR66).B.405.

d)       The examination credit report must be either developed by the competent authority or approved by the competent authority.

 

PART66 (JAR66).B.405 Examination credit report

e)       For each technical qualification concerned the report shall identify the subject matter and knowledge levels contained in Appendix I to this Part relevant to the particular category being compared.

f)        The report shall include a statement of compliance against each subject stating where, in the technical qualification, the equivalent standard can be found. If there is no equivalent standard for the particular subject, the report shall state such facts.

g)       Based upon paragraph (b) comparison, the report shall indicate for each technical qualification concerned the Appendix I subject matters subject to examination credits.

h)       Where the national qualification standard is changed, the report shall be amended as necessary.

BCAR to EASA JAR66 Licence Conversion

The CAA is required to issue, before 30th September 2006, a PART 66 Aircraft Maintenance Licence to all holders of protected rights. Unless the Section L licence held provides full equivalence, the PART 66 licence issued in this circumstance will not equate to the full PART 66 standard. Many licence holders will have technical limitations placed on their licence as a result of these differences. Passing the appropriate conversion exams can lift these limitations.

Your conversion exam requirements may be for full or part modules, depending on your LWTRs and any other authorisation that can be taken into account. The following matrix provides guidance as to what modules may be required, but you should always confirm this and your exam requirements with the CAA before embarking on any conversion programme.

You must always apply direct to the CAA for details of how to sit your examinations.
