Type ratings differences

I was wondering what the differences are between the JAA and FAA type rating training syllabuses and approach to teaching?

This is something I have heard little about, other than the quantiful views and opinions expressed on the generic JAA vs FAA CPL/IR debate. In JAA land low hour graduates go onto there TR and it appears that the system is indeed accomodating to that approach. However in the US pilots poast 1000-1500hr mark go onto a TR, this is further reflected in the entry requirements of numerous US TRTOs that state you must have xxxx hrs flight experience before applying for a course.

What's the difference here, is one foxused on systems, whereas the other concentrates on airmanship and CRM perhaps?
