The SRC is the qualification required by law if there is a VHF radio on board. There is no age limit to attend a VHF Radio Course but all assessment candidates must be aged 16 or older. If you hold the ‘old’ VHF licence (pre -1999) or a UK aviation radio licence you need to upgrade your qualification by doing this course or skip the course and jump straight to the assessment.
