Signed virtually by CAA Nepal’s Director, B.R Subedi and CAAi Managing Director, Maria Rueda, the contract extension is an agreement that will cover the provision of Aircraft Maintenance Engineer examinations leading to a CAA Nepal licence.
The exams will continue to be delivered via computer-based exam systems provided by CAAi and technology partner, Aspeq. The exams will utilise CAAi question banks aligned with CAA Nepal requirements based on the UK and European standards.
The ongoing provision of this exam service to CAAN by CAAi helps to provide the opportunity to ensure that all high-stakes AME examinations for CAAN licensing purposes meet the highest international standards of security and integrity, using the latest technology in computer-based exams and relevant and modern question banks, including but not limited to Human Factors, Aviation Legislation, Aircraft Aerodynamics, and Electrical Fundamentals.
