The latest from Denmark, is that the management is considering not to pay their students for the training on EPN, and only to hire them after they recieved their student license.

So that pretty much boils down to getting less than 500 Eur a month before tax (the same as every high school student), whilst in college !!! And thats not a whole lot here in the tax ridden cold north. Given the work load on the basic course, there is no chance of having another job on the side, so the outcome will propably be that even fewer will apply for an ATC career.

Well done management :-(
