    (a) An approved aircraft dispatcher certification course must:

submit an outline that describes the major topics and subtopics to be 

covered and the number of hours proposed for each.

    (c) Additional subject headings for an aircraft dispatcher 

certification course may also be included, however the hours proposed 

for any subjects not listed in appendix A of this part must be in 

addition to the minimum 200 course hours required in paragraph (a) of 

this section.

    (d) For the purpose of completing an approved course, a student may

curriculum. The credit allowed, including the total hours and the basis 

for it, must be placed in the student's record required by Sec. 

65.70(a) of this part.
