I believe however that anywhere you go in the world requires you to all ready be trained as a commercial pilot before you undertake FE training?
I can't speak for other countries, but in the US, the requirements I quoted previously are the minimum prerequisites by regulation.
As FE hoppy said, there are a lot of experienced FE's out there looking for work, and the number of positions are dwindling.
