The Certificat d'aptitude à l'enseignement aéronautique (CAEA) is French for aeronautical teaching certificate.[1] It is a French national degree created in 1999, delivered by French Ministry of National Education and Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development, Transport and Housing.[2]
Although the CAEA covers a wide field of aeronautics and space knowledge, it is not a pilot licence or certification. It is the degree which conclude aeronautical studies done by students, teachers or professors to teach aeronautic at high school or university.[3]
The diploma is required by the National Education for all supervision of aviation activities at school or university in France.[4] It is also a must to teach the Brevet d'Initiation Aéronautique (aeronautical initiation certificate).[5] The CAEA corresponds to a degree of two-years studies after French Baccalaureate.[6][7]
The exam to be graduate contains five subjects : principle of flight and aerodynamic, aircraft general knowledge, meteorology, navigation and safety of flights, air and space History.[8] Its duration is three hours. Candidat should obtain a result of 10/20 and no grade below 6/20 in one of the five topic.[9]
Flight Instructors can get the CAEA by equivalence, with only an additional training.[10]
