Personnel Licensing covers four areas. These are: Flight Crew, Air Traffic Controllers, Aircraft Maintenance Engineers and their associated Medical certification.
The requirements for Personnel Licensing are contained in the Air Navigation (Overseas Territories) Order (AN(OT)O), principally Articles 13, 21 and 92.
