The reference book still states an SITP of 7 months (Phase one and two training combined) & the RN website indicates 4 months, phase two.It is 26 weeks now isnt it, deffo longer than 16 even if not 26. Not doubting your knowledge ninja but my friends other half was the first to start on the new, longer course a few weeks back?
It does indeed, thanks for the "heads-up".The phase 2 is now a 30 week course, my son is in week 17. They have extended the practical side. The change in course happened with their intake. Hope that helps
Cheers.Ninj, this is all part of the Faraday stuff. They've extended ETICC to include more skill of hand and technical stuff. ETICC was the first to change, followed by LETQC and all the others in due course.
I rather think your observation has rattled a few cages higher up the food chain, so thanks for highlighting the issue. Hopefully people will continue to identify such anomalies - big company, things get missed but they are very important to those joining.Seems a bit nutty that they haven't let those in recruitment know, the ones who really you would think should be first in line for the information to let recruits know. Or the website.
