FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How does personnel certification differ from a training certificate?
A training certificate confirms attendance at a course. Personnel certification, by contrast, assesses in an independent examination procedure whether the person actually masters the required competences.
Does the certification replace an official authorisation?
No. Personnel certification confirms competence for the respective role. The UAS Operations Manager programme expressly includes no practical remote pilot training and no examination for an official authorisation; the UAS Quality Auditor course does not confer IAQG auditor recognition.
Do the preparatory courses have to be taken at intellcert?
No. Courses from other providers whose content we can recognise, or equivalent knowledge acquired elsewhere, are also accepted and must be evidenced. In addition, the examination must be passed and the professional experience stated in the profile must be demonstrated.
