I find it hard to believe that the 'ATL TRACON has never had a trainee with no prior experience reach full certification.' It must be since it moved to Peachtree City because I know of a few that were fully certified with no prior experience We have never had no experience at all trainees allowed to come to ATL TRACON before this fiasco started. We have always only ever taken folks from the likes of CLT, PIT, CVG, MCO, etc. Other level 5's (old way of classification) or high level 4's IE GSO, RDU, etc. when it was at Hartsfield... So it could just be NATCA exaggerating.
