Yeah, Obama and Eric Holder spend their time sorting through resumes for Air Traffic Controllers. Good point. Thanks for adding valuable information to the conversation.

There are about a dozen schools that have ATC programs. ERAU and UND are the largest, I believe. It was supposed to be a direct program right into the FAA training in Oklahoma City. Why on earth the FAA would not take all of these ATC grads and hire from the streets is beyond belief. I have friends that did the ATC program in college and they said it was virtually identical training to what the FAA provides for new hire controllers.
