About the Course
Sigma Aerospace College EASA to CASA straight recognition courses are designed for aircraft engineers currently working in Australia who hold a current EASA Part 66 licence.
Theory training is delivered online via self-paced learning via Sigma’s Learning Management System.
Note that this leads only to an Australia Part 66 licence outcome and does not cover the requirements for an Aeroskills Qualifications (e.g. Certificate IV or Diploma of Aeroskills).

- You must hold a current EASA Part 66 licence
- You must have exercised the privileges of your EASA Part 66 licence
- You must have at least 6 months practical experience within the previous 2 years
- You must be seeking the equivalent licence category (e.g. EASA B1.1 to CASA B1.1)

Course Details
This course does not include competencies from the MEA Aeroskills Training Packages (e.g. Certificate IV and Diploma of Aeroskills).
Note that this course does not lead to an aircraft engineer’s licence outcome directly. However, where possible, the units for your qualification will be chosen to articulate with a licence stream to reduce the outstanding requirements for a licence outcome at a later stage if this is sought.
Part 66 Examination Requirements
Specific CASA Part 66 examination requirements will be determined during the RPL process.
Credit may be applicable from EASA Part 66 examinations completed in accordance with EASA Part 147 requirements.
The RPL process will outline any examination gaps. These will depend primarily on the date of which the examination was completed and European (EU) Commission Regulation in force at the time the examinations were completed.
