CEPT Novice licence
-------------------
A new entry level licence under the Conference of Postal and
Telecommunications Administrations or CEPT umbrella has been progressed a
little further with release of a proposed syllabus.
A number of European countries have been considering the introduction of a
Novice licence since Britain introduced its Foundation Licence in 2002.
However there are regulatory or legislative difficulties in some countries
that prevent their introduction of a Novice licence.
The CEPT is now considering at two measures. Firstly, seeking agreement on
a Novice licence syllabus that can be used as a template for those
countries who can, and want to introduce such a licence.
And it's also proposing that current Novice licences issued by CEPT and
non-CEPT nations, that are deemed equivalent in standard, be recognised for
visitor or guest licences by CEPT participating countries.
This could enable holders of a Novice licence to take their hobby with them
on a holiday by simply using their home callsign slash the country in which
they're holidaying, even if that nation doesn't have its own Novice licence.
