Hi! I currently have a ATC student licence with both a tower rating and a terminal control rating. What I was wondering is if someone here knows any towers in the uk or abroad that would take on a student for training? Any help would be appreciated!

Presumably you have left NATS?? Have you tried contacting any aerodromes? When I was in a similar position, albeit with a full licence, I wrote to every UK airfield with a licenced ATC facility.

Good luck.

Hello! Where did you get your license?? I'm looking for doing the course at Astac, but I suppose that the training is provided by Astac, isn't it?? Because if you don't do the training, you don't get the ATC license, no?? I'm very confussed because one people tell me one thing and another people, other things. Can you please help me?:uhoh:

You get a rating at the college, then a Unit Endorsement where you do your training. If you do not start training within 6 months of gaining the rating then you may need to complete an assessment of previous competence at a college (probably about £2000 worth) prior to being allowed to commence training.
