An instructor rating for the training of private pilots for airplanes, helicopters, gliders and balloons can be issued.

The privileges of a private pilot license may be extended to include the privilege to instruct private pilots for airplanes, helicopters, gliders and balloons.

In order to be able to exercise the rights arising from an instructor rating beyond its period of validity, an extension or - if it has already expired - a renewal is required.

Such instructor ratings are the flight instructor certificate (FI) and the certificate for instructors for class ratings (CRI).

At least 2 of the following 3 requirements must be met for the revalidation of an FI certificate:

Flight instruction
- Aircraft pilot FI(A) and helicopter pilot FI(H): at least 50 hours of flight instruction in the corresponding aircraft category during the period of validity of the rating as FI, CRI, TRI or as examiner
- Glider pilot FI(S): at least 30 hours or 60 take-offs of flight instruction in gliders or touring motor gliders
- Free balloon pilot FI(B): at least 6 hours of flight instruction in balloons
Participation in a refresher seminar for instructors within the period of validity of the instructor license
Successful completion of a competence assessment (within the last twelve months before the expiry date of the instructor license)

For at least every second subsequent renewal in the case of an FI(A) or FI(H) or every third renewal in the case of an FI(As), (S) and (B), the holder must complete a competence assessment.

To renew an expired instructor certificate, the last two of the above requirements must have been met within the 12 months preceding the application.

To renew a CRI certificate, the applicant must meet at least 2 of the following 3 requirements before the expiration date of the CRI certificate:

At least 10 hours of flight instruction in the role of a CRI. If the applicant holds CRI privileges for both single-engine and multi-engine airplanes, the 10 hours of flight instruction must be equally divided between the single-engine and multi-engine airplanes,
refresher training as a CRI at an ATO
the assessment of competence in accordance with FCL.935 for multi-engine or single-engine aircraft

To renew an expired CRI instructor certificate, the last two of the above requirements must have been met within the last twelve months prior to application.
