A return to a BCPL/FI-type rating would seem appropriate as the current requirements (particularly the ground school) for the JAR FI rating are farcical; it could be argued that the current situation prevents a good many 'career' instructors from entering the field and effectively prohibits anyone but hours-builders on their way to an airline career. After all, do you need to know about the weather between Recife and Dakar to teach circuits in the UK?
