Bond Avaition did a similar scheme in the early 2000's right up to the demise of Astraeus. You.paid £30k (ish) got rated on the 73 or 75, then paid for 100 hours on type. No guarantee of a job at the end. All in the UK put of London, Manchester and Birmingham (I think). They ran the courses every few months and were always busy. So no it's not just one company.
