However, there is one college in the UK, and probably many others in Europe where ICAO Language levels can be improved upon without bigoted judgement, just an assessment of the facts.
For the record, the assesment is based upon spoken, not written, levels of competence.
Back to the question which Staraviator posed:
You would have to get a EEC recognised ATCO Licence, then, to work in the EEC, pass an assessment of prior competence in to prove yourself worthy of being able to work in that country.
The APC may lead to you being given dispensation for some of the ratings, or you having to do the whole course.
Its worth checking with each country's CAA.

There really is no such thing as an internationally valid licence. Each State is responsible for issuing its own licence (or equivqlent authorisation) for use in its own territory. Many States will accept a licence issued by another State as the basis for permitting the holder to provide ATC in their own territory (although often the States' licences that are recognised are rather limited).
If you can demonstrate that your training met the Standards in ICAO Annex 1 - which are very basic - and have experience providing services in accordance with PANS-ATM etc. you should have a good start when discussing with a State's CAA how to get one of their licences.
As niknak alluded to, the situation in the European Union is a bit different - although by no means clear. There are new rules due out any day which might give you a licence that can be used in any EU State - but the requirements for getting one are far more detailed than those in ICAO. That is not to say it is 'better' than a licence issued outside the EU, just that there are far more boxes that need to be ticked in order to qualify for the licence.

I never said or implied that IAL did anything illegal, but your statement
, is an accurate summary of the state of affairs at that time.
which was recognised by the States in which they had contracts.

Sorry niknak, I wasn't trying to put words in your mouth.
The way I read your post it seemed that you were suggesting that IAL (or anyone else properly authorised) issuing a licence wouldn't be tolerated or legal today. The point I wanted to make was that it was quite legitimate then - just as it is now.
