The ROC-A (Restricted Operator Certificate – Aeronautical) is a Canadian aviation radio licence issued by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED). It’s required for anyone operating aircraft radios or communicating on aviation frequencies — including (but not limited to) pilots, student pilots, drone operators, and flight crew members.

The ROC-A exam covers aviation phraseology, radio procedures, and emergency communication protocols. It’s a 60-minute exam designed to ensure you understand how to communicate clearly and safely in Canadian airspace. It includes multiple-choice questions and some practical radio call scenarios.
