Hi,
I'm a 30 year old airline employee looking for a career change into ATC. I have my stage 1 with NATS booked in a couple of weeks and am feeling passionate and excited about the future. This thread is packed with useful information and advice for us new starters and I am working my way through all 81 pages. (I apologise in advance if the answer to my question is already posted.)
I am interested to know, how do ATCO's fund themselves through the NATS school? I understand that there is a salary of £10k but I haven't yet found information about grants or loans to further support student ATCO's during that year.
Any information/advice/tips welcome.
Many thanks.
