FEAST oversight - Local or centralized in Eurocontrol?

Greetings wise ones!

Can someone confirm something for me please?

Until very recently, I was under the impression that FEAST and all other such tests were administered through some form of a connection to a central 'server' in Eurocontrol 'HQ'. Using this method, "the European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation" could always look after the testing.

Other insights have lead me to believe otherwise. Among them some unanswered comments on forums such as these. I checked out FEAST | Eurocontrol, and indeed it seems that they deliver the entire software packaged to the training/testing organization, rather than merely a means to connect to the 'HQ'.

If this is indeed true, it would sure as hell explain why a training organization might very very very very very very very very very very very very very very easily get away with..........shall we call them.........."certain detours and shortcuts" in the "selection processes!"
