ATSEP competence is a lifecycle
ATSEP competence does not end when a course or examination is completed. ANSPs need to build competence, maintain it, assess it, keep evidence current and adapt as roles, systems and responsibilities change.
Entry Point North supports this lifecycle with training, ongoing competence assurance and specialist expertise. Regulatory responsibility, competence decisions and control of competence data remain with the ANSP.
It all starts with regulation
EU Regulation 2017/373 requires service providers employing ATSEP to establish training and competence assessment programmes, maintain records of completed training and competence assessments, provide continuation training and conduct ongoing competence assessment. ICAO Doc 10057 also takes a competency-based approach to ATSEP training and assessment.
The practical challenge is therefore larger than finding the next course. ANSPs also need to know who needs which competence, who currently has it, what comes next, where gaps exist and whether the necessary evidence can be produced when required.
One ATSEP promise. Three levels of support.
Choose the level of support that fits your organisation today. Expand over time as your competence needs develop.
ATSEP Training
Build competence

ATSEP Assurance
Maintain competence and improve visibility through recurring support built around three services:
Insights
Make data visible
Bring learner progress, training records, assessments, feedback and relevant operational data into one customised view.
This makes progress and gaps easier to see and supports timely follow-up.
Knowledge library
Keep knowledge accessible
Give ATSEP personnel access to approved, searchable knowledge and tailored learning paths.
This reduces time spent searching for information and supports consistent knowledge sharing.
Govern
Connect roles, requirements and gaps
Connect ATSEP roles with applicable training requirements, identify gaps and support targeted training plans and refresher course delivery.
This creates clearer oversight of training needs.
ATSEP Expertise
Access specialist ATSEP support when you need to develop internal training, prepare for audits or strengthen competence development with external expertise.
Co-creation
Structure internal training
Work with Entry Point North learning designers to turn internal expertise into structured, accessible digital learning that is easier to share, maintain and reuse.
Audit support
Prepare evidence with confidence

Specialist knowledge
Add expertise when needed
Access ATSEP specialists for course development, regulatory guidance and one-to-one or team coaching when additional expertise is needed.

FAQ
The recent EU 2017/373 revision provides ANSPs and course participants flexibility in how they build an ATSEP training path. To become an ATSEP, course participants must complete ATSEP Basic Shared, at least one of the Basic Streams, ATSEP Qualification Shared (Q Shared), and at least one Qualification Stream relevant to the ATSEP profile.
ATSEPs generally have an engineering or vocational technical background before entering ATS.
The ATSEP Basic course is designed for technical personnel operating and maintaining Air Traffic Management (ATM) equipment. It provides basic knowledge of ATM’s operational and technical aspects and prepares learners for the next steps in the ATSEP training path, including the ATSEP Qualification Shared (Q Shared) and Qualification Streams.
Qualification Training is designed to impart the knowledge needed to explain the purpose of each system, each piece of equipment and its technical specification. After successful completion of ATSEP Basic Training, the learner completes Qualification Shared (Q Shared), followed by one or more Qualification Streams relevant to the ATSEP profile.
Price is mainly driven by four elements: the training scope and level you need, the delivery method you choose, the number of participants and courses over time, and the degree of customisation.
You will have access to the online material for 90 days after registration. Please see the specific course page for the estimated number of hours required to complete the material.

Yes. Many ANSPs and CNS providers prefer to include ATSEP Basic, Qualification Shared, Qualification Streams, refresher training, and OJTI and Assessor training in multi-year agreements. This often gives more predictable costs, better planning and simpler internal budgeting compared to buying single courses one by one.
