SERCO took over a company operating 50 odd non-FAA ATC facilities called Barton ATC Inc some years ago. I think they are just towers as approach control is mostly done from TRACONs in the USA.
Apparently their controllers are trained to the same standards as FAA employed ones but don't have a license or certificate. I don't know who certifies their competence; presumably the FAA do.
Anyone from the USA care to enlighten us?
