Trainee

Train with Croatia Control’s certified ATCO Training Organization to progress from classroom and simulator phases (Basic Training, then Rating Training) to supervised unit training at operational ATS units across the network. Candidates who already hold a related university degree may be credited for Basic Training; otherwise, Basic lasts ~14 weeks followed by 12–20 weeks of Rating Training, leading to a student ATCO licence before moving into unit training. Expect intensive simulation, continuous assessments, and a team-based operational model that prepares you for tower, approach or area control; full unit training typically brings the total path to around 2–3 years.
