This part consists of an exam with multiple choice questions (MCQs). The passing scores for each section are established after each exam within the Sub-Committee, based on statistical performance of individual questions and on the average level of scores taken from the respective examination.

Candidates will have to pass the theoretical section successfully before going to the second part. For the practical part, candidates must submit a logbook.
