Cfwake, as usual this thread has reached no conclusion whatsoever, I think we are both right in some ways. I accept that OAAs traning is probably very good and that you do have a certain advantage in getting a job when leaving, however I maintain that they exploit their own reputation and people's fears of not being able to get a job to charge their students over the odds for their courses.
I'd say they are as good at pulling the wool over the airline recruitment departments they deal with as they are at pulling the wool over the eyes of their students.
If your happy with them however, then who am I to criticise. Good luck with the course and I hope you get a decent job at the end of it, ie one that does not cost you an extra 25grand!
