Good balance between AV material and written. The speech in the AV was in a clear pronunciation which was helpful for students whose first language isn't English.

The information was concise and very descriptive and taught me a lot about the nature and the use of TFR's

Thank you for taking the time to teach us beginners the correct process to safe flying. I'm glad that I found a site that is completely dedicated to helping to teach people the correct way of flying and providing an easier way of recognizing what to do in situations that could prove to be stressful if we didn't have the proper knowledge.

Course Elements

Each study unit contains an outlined reference guide as explained below.

10 thought-provoking true/false study questions
4-7 pages of knowledge transfer outline
5-10 minutes audiovisual presentation
A 10-question multiple-choice quiz

To complete a study unit, you must:

Answer 10 thought-provoking true/false study questions.
You will receive answer explanations that indicate why you answered the questions correctly or incorrectly. The true/false study questions are intended to help you to begin thinking about and studying the subject matter of the study unit. They also allow you to evaluate how much you already know about the concepts. Your performance on this section does not affect whether you pass the study unit or complete the course.
Print and study the knowledge transfer outline for the study unit.
The outlines are divided into sections called "subunits" to make studying them easier. You can use the print function on your browser to print the outline by clicking "Print" under the "File" Menu. Use your printout of the knowledge transfer outlines for future reference. When you have finished studying the outlines, you will be ready to take the multiple-choice quiz.
Pass the multiple-choice quiz with a score of 70% or better.
You will be presented with 10 multiple-choice questions based on the material you covered in the outline section of the study unit. You may move back and forth between questions and change your answers, but once you choose to grade the quiz, you will not be allowed to return to the questions. When you have answered each of the 10 multiple-choice questions to your satisfaction, click the "Grade" button at the bottom of the screen below the last question. Once you obtain a passing score, a review session will provide you with answer explanations for any multiple-choice questions that you answered incorrectly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take the study units in any order?
Yes, but once you start a study unit, you have to complete that study unit before continuing.
Can I skip the true/false part since the score doesn't count?
No. SRAC is set up so that you have to take the true/false questions. The true/false questions are there to help you pass by focusing on areas you need to improve.
What happens if I fail a quiz?
Failing a test twice in a row causes you to be locked out. You must then contact Gleim for further directions.
What happens if I have computer problems and am unable to complete the course?
The computer requirements for taking this course are minimal and can be done at just about any computer with Internet access. If anything goes wrong, you can email us at support@gleim.com or call (800) 874-5346 for help.
What requirements do I need to satisfy in order to pass the course?
Each of the 9 study units ends with a 10-question multiple choice quiz. You must pass each of the end-of-study-unit multiple-choice quizzes with a score of 70% or better. Print your completion certificate, and you're done with the course.
