You can get a JAA licence at airmed which should be recognised through out Europe. In the UK, some companies still prefer CAA licence but they will all be changing to the JAA licence in future so should be no prob. My concern with Airmed and simular schools is that they state that you can get a job in the left hand seat after graduation in theory this may be possible but in practice without sponsership/connections practicaly impossible. If you are just starting out and you want to get your basic training (0->cpl)done for a resonable price airmed is probably as good as the rest and every school has its flaws. But take into account that < 200h will not get you a job yet especially in todays market where at 1000+ you only just start to get interesting for airliners and then even may have to take along some cash. You will need quite an amount of hour building/instructing(=more dosh) to get there afterwards.
Good luck
