given all of the internal noise about the inadequacies of the old Learning Academy and the OJT in civil ATC, maybe a completely new integrated civil-military training approach is required...
Could be a cost saving as well, I wonder if OneSky has looked at that?
With regard to the Learning Academy (nee Training College) part of it is that ATC's just like to complain about training and trainees. Controllers have been saying 'training/trainees these days is/are rubbish' since I started 20 years ago.
