• show the highest sense of ethics;

    I consent to the treament of my personal data by AVIAtest in the processing of my application as a Linguistic Assessor.

    Our photo requirements

    We kindly ask you to provide us with 2 photographs of yourself. The files will of course never be shared outside of AVIAtest. As with the rest of your data, we maintain the strictest confidence and care.

    1. An identity photo, which we will store in your file and use to identify you with our regulator, the Civil Aviation Authority, IF they decide to visit us for an audit during an assessment session where you are present. To standardize it as much as possible, please try to stay as close as possible to these guidelines.

    Example:

    2. A more laid-back image of you

    We are not looking for identity/passport-style photos, but for a more casual image of yourself. We are also not looking for vacation/beach/poolside photos, which would be inappropriate. To give you a rough idea of what we would like, try to imagine that you have to wear an ID badge with a picture of you that gives out an image that you would like to project.

    Example:
