This Online Radio Course allows you to learn everything you need to know about using VHF Radios, at your own pace and whenever you like. At the end of this course, you will know how to call for help in an emergency, communicate with other vessels at sea, and understand how to use various safety equipment you may have onboard.

After you have enrolled, Above & Beyond Boating will send your login details. The course takes around 4 hours to complete.
On completion of the course, you will have the opportunity to complete an exam and get your VHF Radio Licence. This will also allow you to apply for an MMSI number for your vessel.

Getting your VHF Radio Licence

To get your VHF Radio Licence, you must complete an exam. There are two parts to the exam. The first component is a closed book theory test with 25 multiple choice questions. The required mark to pass is 70%. The other component is a short and simple practical assessment where you need to demonstrate the basic operation of a VHF Radio, and you will also be assessed on your ability to perform a radio check and how you would call for help.

You can either schedule an exam time with Above & Beyond Boating in Sydney, or you can choose to complete your exam at another centre. If you choose to complete your radio examination with Above & Beyond Boating, then you can book in an exam time using their online calendar.

Qualification

On sitting and passing the exam, you will be issued with a Short Range Operators Certificate of Proficiency - SROCP (formerly MROVCP) from the Office of Maritime Communications (O.M.C.).

Your certificate does not expire. The certificate fee is $89 (as of January 2018), which is payable directly to the O.M.C. when you sit your exam.
