converting FAA instuctor to JAA instructor

Already have my FAA instructor ratings and want to get my JAR one. Am currnetly finishing up my ATPL exams, will do the commercial conversion and instrument - multi but then want to get the instructor over here. What's my next move. Can I just take the course approved by CAA or is there something else. Also just a sidenote, is there a place in the U.K where they do FAA instruction. thanks
