Thus the concept of single rating training at the college has been born, and will commence within the next year
Well I can see the logic behind it all, but just call me old fashioned I liked it when you were trained in everything. It gave you a much broader picture of where you fitted in to the whole business.
Another backwards step was the removal of the Student ATCO licence before taking the first course. It enabled airfields like mine to put a prospective candidate on the r/t and see what they were like in the real world before committing finance to courses. now you have to buy them an Aerodrome course (and pass it) before you can test them out.
Perhaps I have been in the business too long.......
