3.1.2 “What happens if my English level is not sufficient to follow a type training course”
In this case you have to hire an interpreter. Airbus Helicopters Training Academy has a pool of experienced interpreters and can assist you at any time. You can of course arrive with your interpreter one week prior to the official
start of the training course and study the MBT as described in 3.1.1.

What is MBT
Multimedia based training is a learning tool that you can access via the Internet all over the world.
It provides interactive content as well as simulations and animations.
You will be guided through all chapters and at the end of each chapter you can do an examination to check your
progress.
In addition to the multimedia training course you have the possibility to meet the other students from the course in
a forum. And you have access to a library with the official maintenance documentation.
Moreover an instructor will answer all your questions via e-mail.
