License commercial pilots wishing to fly aircraft weighing over 5700 kg may wish to pursue an Airline Transport Pilot License (ATPL). To qualify for an ATPL license, pilots must hold a CPL license, have logged at least 1500 flight hours, and be able to pass the theory exams.

A certificate is proof of qualification of a certain set of skills. Students who obtain a certificate have completed educational requirements and tests. Through completion, they become ready to pursue a degree or diploma, or to head into the professional world in their field of expertise.

Part time learning allows one to obtain part-time degrees even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at his or own pace, gradually accumulating credits which count towards final qualification.
