Regarding the Advanced Weapon Training option "Versatile Training": Can the fighter choose any weapon group he/she wants? Or is he restriced to weapon groups he/she has chosen previously as part of the "Weapon Training" class feature?
Example: A 12th level fighter has chosen the weapon group "Heavy blades" at 5th and "Bows" at 9th level. Upon reaching 13th level, he/she selects "Versatile Training". Is he/she restricted in his/her choice to the weapon groups "Heavy blades" and "Bows", or can he/she also choose any other weapon group, e.g. "Axes", as AWT option?
The description in the respective rules sections are unclear to me:
Advanced Weapon Training:
"Beginning at 9th level, instead of selecting an additional fighter weapon group, a fighter can choose an advanced weapon training option (see Advanced Weapon Training below) for one fighter weapon group that he previously selected with the weapon training class feature."
Versatile Training:
"The fighter can use his base attack bonus in place of his ranks in two skills of his choice that are associated with the fighter weapon group he has chosen with this option (see below)."
Thanks again.

Versatile Training is one of the abilities you can select with Advanced Weapon Training, so it would abide by its restrictions, unless the ability says differently.
Versatile Training removes the requirement to be wielding the weapon, but no other limitations, so you need to select a weapon from a group you previously selected for Weapon Training.
