This is an Industry Canada course contracted to Canadian Power and Sail Squadrons, headquarters in Toronto. There are 60 Multiple choice questions with a 42/60 pass and 3 verbal questions 2 /3 to be correct. Know your phonetic alphabet and how to make all the calls. Your radio card is green in colour. If you have an old card which is beige, cream or made of paper, they are no longer legal with our new DCS radios, or for working commercially. You can no longer upgrade them, you must write a new exam! Take time to read and absorb the information in Sections 1-9. Know the alphabet. You will receive a temporary certificate and the hard green card comes from Toronto in about 6 weeks. It has taken longer since covid. The temporary certificate is good for 90 days, but they are extending that for now. Most students will choose to challenge the exam. It will save some cost. If you wish to sit in on a short seminar, Heads-Up Navigation Ltd. runs these in conjunction with the other courses offered at the school, usually on Saturdays from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. If you don’t pass you can return the next day to write another exam at no further cost.
