@ machone Do you mean Zero Flight Time Training?
From UK CAA website with regards to ZFTT:
Organisational Requirements
In order to be eligible to conduct ZFTT, the training organisation (TO) concerned will need to comply with the following requirements:
* It must have a specific approved arrangement with an EU-OPS operator.
* It shall ensure that the student pre-requisites are met before starting the course.
* The type rating will be restricted to that particular operator until line flying under supervision has been accomplished.
* A specific simulator session including a minimum of six additional take-offs and landings shall be conducted according to EU-OPS 1.945(d)(2).
* The Flight Simulator(s) must be suitably qualified in accordance with JAR-STD and User approved (for ZFTT) by the Authority.
* For an initial approval to conduct ZFTT, the operator shall have held an EU-OPS AOC for at least one year. This requirement may be reduced at the discretion of the Authority where the operator and the TRTO have experience of type rating training.
* Instructors for the ZFTT session must be qualified as a TRI (Aeroplanes) and those instructors completing the first four take-offs and landings of the Line Flying Under Supervision must also be TRI(A) qualified.
In other words, as far as I read this, ZFTT needs to be conducted for a specific AOC holder, the AOC holder needs to be specifically approved for ZFTT, the pilot can only fly for this specific operator until line training has been conducted and passed.
