Reviewing a Certification
When you are assigned to To review a certification, you will need to:
Login to http://zephyr-sim.com to process the request
Click Certifications on the left-hand navigation menu
Click the Manage Certifications table to expand it
Find the certification in the table that you are assigned would like to review
Its status should be Awaiting Review. If not, follow these instructions
Note: you may also claim certifications that are Awaiting Attempt. Under special circumstances, you may bypass the attempt submission process. For instance, if you live-proctor an attempt either in person or through a virtual meeting, you may bypass the attempt submission process. In the notes field when you are approving or denying the certification, you will need to note these circumstances.
Click the “Cog” Icon for the Certification then click “Claim”
Note: “Claiming” a certification simply reserves that certification for you to review it. This prevents other Reviewers from reviewing the same certification
Once the Certification is Claimed, you will be able to summon the “Review Certification Attempt” window
Click the “View” button to open the user’s attempt in a separate window
If you have issues viewing the video: Follow the FAQ instructions for Video format unrecognized and Video link is private or taken down
Once you review the user’s video attempt, you may mark the attempt as “Approve”, “Deny”, or “Reattempt”
Approve - the attempt was sufficient to merit the certification
Deny - the attempt was no sufficient to merit the certification
Note: you must submit notes explaining why their attempt was denied
Reattempt - the attempt was technically incorrect, but the reviewer is allowing the user to resubmit
Note: you must submit notes explaining what was incorrect with their submission
Note: allowing a reattempt still constitutes a single certification review
...
Yes, when the reattempt it submitted on a certification that you performed the original review, the certification will automatically be claimed by you. However, you still have 7 days from that date to review the certification. Otherwise it will be released for another reviewer to pick up.
Can I approve or deny a certification without the pilot submitting an attempt?
Yes, you may claim a certification that has the Awaiting Attempt status. You will need to note the circumstances when you approve or deny the certification in the notes field.
