Answer
Hi Ben,
   You can find out about the various aspects of being an air traffic controller by going to the FAA website at http://www.faa.gov/careers/employment/jobinfo.htm
Check out the colleges that are listed under the CTI option on the website if you are interested in becomng an air traffic controller.
If after you visit the FAA website you still have questions you can email me at dacus@iwon.com.

Good Luck

Dacus
