Well, I found this in the Appendix 1 to JAR-FCL 1.055:
"7. If an FTO wishes to make changes to an approved course or to its operations or training manual the approval of the Authority shall be obtained before the changes are implemented. FTOs need not advise the Authority of minor changes in day-to-day operations. Where any doubt exists as to whether a proposed change is minor, the Authority shall be consulted.
8. An FTO may make training arrangements with other training organisations or make use of alternative
base aerodromes as part of its overall training organisation, subject to the approval of the Authority."
It says nothing about registrations though...

Another thing that must be considered is that any document or certificate you get from a Spanish FTO must be translated into English! They only issue Spanish ones. Some schools that offer Integrated ATPL courses in English issue them in English any other course you get Spanish Certificates...which in the UK are not very handy!

I did my training in Airmed (English integrated course) and i know they do ATPL (Theory) modular courses and the price last year was around 9000 Euros and takes about 6 months of classes, there are no distance learning courses at Airmed.
What i don't know is if you can do them in english, as far as i know only the integrated can be done in English,
but there is a scotish guy working there called Allan (Operational Procedures ground instructor) and an English guy called Tim ( RTF ground instructor), you can call and ask for them, they are very friendly.
For the ME and IR modular courses i have no info, i haven't heard of anybody doing them at Airmed, but i can be wrong.
Hope it helps.
