Career as Ops Officer/Flight Dispatcher

[tug3]

Quick question some of you might be kind enough to answer - A friend was interested in career as an Air Traffic Controller but unfortunately was knocked back on medical grounds. (Nothing serious however). He remains interested in a career in aviation and I suggested he might try Operations Officer/Flight Dispatcher.

Any pointers as to how to start the ball rolling in terms of training courses and possible recruitment opportunities?

Thanks in advance.
