As far as convenience is concerned, it is a relative concept...if you want to remain at home or near your home then obviously you should get the training from a good school in India only...moreover it is relatively cheaper to study in India than abroad.

Now-a-days trained professionals from India get better placements as private airlines are increasing day by day..

All the best
