During the Week of February 27, four short months since it's introduction, ACMA has issued the 250th foundation licence. This period includes the Christmas break when there was very little training and assessment activity. The WIA is currently processing assessments at rate averaging around 40 each week and at the end of the week commencing February 27, had processed just over 400 packs. So we can look forward to seeing ACMA issue the 500th licence in the not to distant future.

Meanwhile the number of clubs offering training and assessment for the foundation licence continues grow and the WIA has received several applications from members of clubs yet to commence foundation licence training. Training off additional assessors will commence shortly and on completion the WIA will have around 200 qualified assessors.
