Test administration requires just a lap-top and two pairs of headsets. TELLCAP® raters are rather mobile and can go to other destinations on short notice. This is a “no paper” test, and pilots and controllers do not need to demonstrate abilities to read, write, or, moreover, use the computer keyboard. Test results are kept confidential in the database for as long time as needed.
Though designed and developed not by native speakers of English, TELLCAP® is a rather reliable, valid, content-authentic, multi-version test with tasks adequate to pilots’ and controllers’ jobs.
