question about Global ATS
I have some questions about global ATS.
How many people who finish the course and get the license gets the job there? Do I have the apply individually? and How much is it??

Global ATS may have some ATC contracts in the Middle East but in the UK are only a college where you can train for your ATC License and ratings; as far as I'm aware they do not provide Air Traffic Services at any location in the UK (but I could be wrong) hence do not offer employment.

cubes9 - consult Global-ATS, or any other ITO, directly - see their websites.

Once you've pass the initial training (basic atco course + rating training) at Global you progress to OJT at a unit. As Chevvron said, Global are only a training provider. If you pass the initial training at the NATS college, you will move on to OJT at a NATS unit.

but there are (or were) problems at ctc weren’t there? I heard that the last few courses to go through were held for significant periods in between their basic and ADI courses and again between ADU and APS. And not just a few weeks but for periods of 4 months and longer.
I can speculate but it sounds like you know the real reason?

Trainees from all the ITOs that NATS contract their training to, have & may be held because they are fitted into the training slots available at unit as the opportunity arises. It may be they are held as the simulators are prioritised elsewhere, or because they are waiting for that space at unit, but that's not necessarily anything to do with "problems" at the CTC, it's a NATS business decision. Yes, it's difficult for those concerned, & uncomfortable for those who have to make those decisions, but the root cause does not lie at the initial training stage.

A statement from Global ATS on their Facebook page:
MARCH 21 2020
COVID-19 UPDATE FROM GLOBAL ATSAs you will be aware, Global ATS has continued to monitor and react to the ever-changing situation relating to coronavirus (COVID-19) and our number one priority remains the safety of our students, employees and their families.
As the UK Government has rapidly escalated its position and guidelines over recent days, I have today decided to take further actions to ensure we not only continue to ensure the safety of students, employees and families but also do our part towards the goal of promoting effective social distancing.
Effective from the 23rd March 2020:
We will not commence any new courses which are advertised on our published schedule until at least 1st June 2020.
All courses which have started in the last two weeks will be postponed and students will be given places on the next set of scheduled courses which commence on Monday 1st June 2020. Students will be allowed to participate on any parts of the course they have already completed. Students will continue to have access to our Distance Learning Portal (DLP) and will be able to use this time to further prepare for the rescheduled course.
Any course which has already started and is due to conclude during the week commencing 23rd March 2020 will be concluded in line with UK CAA requirements.
If at anytime between now and the 1st June 2020 we consider it safe to do so we will endeavour to run short courses such as APCs, OJTI and Assessor.
In my own personal opinion it would not surprise me if NATS may also be reviewing courses In the not to distant future!

As you have chosen to copy and paste the statement from Global-ATS instead of using a link, it should be clarified that the last line is your opinion, not part of Global's statement.
