Skydiving Licenses

Your  Skydiving License is your ticket to be able to jump anywhere in the world - in general.
Unfortunately completing just the AFF Course is not enough for you to become a Certified, or Licensed Skydiver.

You will still be able to jump in other places, but always under a Student Status, and subject to some stricter restrictions.

To get your Skydiving License, or Jumping Certificate, there are a number of requirements that you need to achieve and these can vary between different Countries/Associations/Federations.

Bellow you can find some very simple example lists of requirements from different Countries/Associations/Federations.
Since USPA and FPPq A-Licenses share somewhat similar requirements I will refer to USPA only, further bellow.

There are more licenses after the A-License, but this is the firstone you'll get ​=)

**** Please note: these serve only as a guideline with summarized information
