The Day VFR syllabus, which incorporates the Australian National Competency Standards for Private and Commercial Pilots effective on 1 July 1999, provides clear details of the standard defining the English language requirements for private and commercial pilots operating radiotelephony equipment. The syllabus also covers the various flight stages, like first solo and GFPT, leading up to the PPL/CPL.

The performance criteria for the R/T standards are described in the Day VFR syllabus as "Transmission and receipt of R/T messages is carried out using English language in accordance with procedures and phraseology detailed in the FROL syllabus and Aeronautical Information Publications (AIP) … etc … and all messages are reacted to appropriately."

The assessment of the standard must be based on the evidence, which the syllabus also provides guidance in a table of evidence.
