Do I need to complete a theory assessment on the GVC to RPC-L1 course?
No. Existing GVC holders are exempt from sitting the RPC-L1 theory assessment.
You are, however, required to complete the theory learning modules, delivered online through our Learning Management System, with live instructor support available.
This is designed to refresh and update your knowledge against the current RPC-L1 syllabus, which matches the GVC syllabus.
The syllabus covers Air Law, Aircraft General Knowledge, Human Performance Limitations, Meteorology, and Operating Procedures.
