Cabin Crew Training Europe – EASA Cabin Crew Attestation (CCA)

What is Cabin Crew Attestation ?

The Cabin Crew attestation (CCA) is a professional qualification.

It consists of mandatory courses, and an associated examination in line with EASA Aircrew Regulation, the European Aviation Safety Agency.

The initial certification  training (CCA) must be provided by an organisation approved by a civil aviation authorities of a member state of EU (CCTO). This certificate is then recognized throughout Europe.
Europe Air Crew is an organisation approved by TM CAD.

CCA validity

CCA is valid for 5 years from their creation date if you don’t fly. You can renew your certification by completing an adapted training program that is shorter and less costly than the initial training.

Cabin crew members must hold an EU Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) attestation compliant with the rules set out by the regulation (EU) No 1177/2011 and Regulation (EU) 2016/425.

Each airline company must issue an attestation certificate to each cabin crew member. This attestation certificate is valid and recognized in every other EU country. There is no need to apply for any additional certification.

Requirements to work as cabin crew in Europe

If you want to work as an airline cabin crew, you need to complete a CCA course before starting your job. You will also need to pass a medical examination and demonstrate that you meet all other requirements.

The initial program consists of theoretical and practical exams. Each student will receive a personalised schedule according to his/her availability and needs.

In some countries, the training is performed in the country language. This is the case in France for example. But most of CCTO’s perform this training in English.

Airline conversion training after recruitment

Once hired, airlines provide additional conversion training, covering:

  • aircraft type,

  • operator-specific procedures,

  • safety and emergency equipment.

This training can last several weeks, depending on the airline.
This is why choosing a serious and reputable initial CCA training organisation is essential.
