Dear All,
I am interested in the next few years in joining the MCD as an instructor and was wondering what the training involved is like. I have been in the RMP TA for over ten years and have done a tour in Iraq (working alongside the RN & RM).
I am not interested in the ACF as I was a Sea Cadet, and want to return to my roots as it were and put something back regarding my training & experiences.
Amongst the many queries I have are:
1. Is there a basic training course and as a serving member of HM Forces, would I be exempt or is it more than just military training (which I don't mind doing again) i.e. working with children?
2. With my previous military experiences do I start on the bottom rung of instructors (I presume that would be a Sgt)?
3. What camps do MCD do?
Any help gratefully received.
