Congrats, Is the DART test on the same day as FEAST, providing you pass FEAST?
I've passed as well and got the same info about FEAST test. That should be fun 😆
Thanks for the information. Just got email stating I’m progressing to FEAST Test around week of 13th Feb
For reference, for the last competition the online assessments were to be completed before Sunday 9th February 2020.
I received an invitation on 13th February to sit the FEAST/DART on Monday 24 February 2020.
I then received confirmation on 4th March 2020 that I was progressing to the next stage.
On 10th March 2020 I was asked to complete an online work strengths questionnaire between 11th March and Sunday 22nd March.
After this everything changed due to Covid.
Doubt it, the whole process is slow and they take their time with everything
Reckon we will have the results by the end of this week?
I've just finished mine, seemed deceptively easy 🤷🏻♀️ It was roughly the same as the practice questions they provided. Hoping for an answer soon
Has anyone attempted the online assessment for the current campaign yet? If so, how was it?
Educated guess that this would be for a class starting September 2023
No it will not count, you will start on the first step of the scale.
How long is the process roughly, given success at each stage?
Also received the email about the online assessment and am curious to find out what it is. Link will be issued in few days so it's not a long wait but any info would be greatly appreciated! Good luck to all attending
I also received an email about the online assessment and i'm in the same boat with regards to having a few years built up in civil service. What does the online assessment comprise of? Is it the typical psychometric tests such as verbal and numerical tests like most jobs? Eg. gardai/nas
Hello there folks
I recieved an email about the online assessment for the next (or class after next) intake. Needless to say the competition is probably going to be fairly fierce, but I have a question for those of you who managed to get through all the way to the job.
Did any of you come from a civil service position, and if so were you able to keep your years of service? I understand that the IAA is semi state, and it would be great to be able to start further up the scale if I made it through.
Thanks!
And 2022 applications open until 31st October...
SCP19 is finally starting in March 2023. This has been a loooooong recruitment process!
The local paper is the Clare Champion and it's out every Thursday. Otherwise try daft.ie.
There are a couple of estate agents in the town centre too.
Hi guys, I have created a Whatsapp group for al of us who passed the interview so is easier to talk about it regarding training and accommodation.

Would love to know that as well actually
Hello everyone! Congratulations and commiserations to all receiving word today (: I’m just wondering if anyone has an inside scoop on finding accommodation in Shannon? Is there a “go to” location that students would usually rent in…anyone know?
Am I right in thinking that both SCP19 and SCP20 will be taken from our panel?
I'm <10 on the panel so hoping to be in the first group. May 2023 sounds so long away though :(
Placed on the panel in the mid 20s. Hopefully we won't be waiting too long for SCP20.
Me too - you are not alone!
I found this article online from Sept 2021
“The changes to proposed training schedules are described in more detail from paragraph 3.44 below, cognisant of a maximum class size of 24 staff due to constraints on the availability of simulators, with an expected number of qualifying ATCOs of 18 (i.e. a pass rate of 75%).”
”Four training programmes (SCP17-SCP20) have been plotted out on a monthly basis over the period 2022-2024 ensuring that no two classes are run in parallel and that no more than 18 trainees are expected to graduate per class. Steer recognises that the 11 students on the SCP17 programmed were part way through their training when the course was suspended due to COVID and all 11 trainees are expected to resume training in 2022 in the model, based on information provided by the ANSP.”
From this I take that SCP 18 will be starting August 2022, and with an expected term of 9 months in Shanon, that’ll leave SCP 19 to start somewhere around May 2023, with 24 spaces offered? Then SCP 20 to start Feb 2024?
Information taken from:
Consultation Response Report v3_1 28Sep2021 (Non-Confidential - SENT)
I presume the 2 slots in August are to fill gaps in the SCP18 class that was cancelled and now restarting (2 people must have dropped out?)
Amazing! Do you mind my asking what place you received? I was told the same as Tristan100 in that “future vacancies will be filled from this panel,” and I’m just trying to work out roughly how long it may take.
Ah, very well done! I was just told "future vacancies will be filled from the panel".
Congratulations to all who made it and so sorry to anyone who missed out :( I'd say they'll be running the program again soon.
They told me that based on my place on the panel I will likely be included in the first programme. I will receive more information shortly.
I have also been placed on the panel!
