MILITARY TRAINING The courses are designed to give Learners the skills needed to start their journey towards a rewarding career in the British Armed Forces or to progress on to further education or training. At the college, Learners will follow a weekly routine of activities and curriculum. This includes vocational training, physical training, English and mathematics, military training days and assessments. The curriculum covers a wide variety of skills, giving the confidence to develop. These skills and the added confidence to apply them are gained through an active and holistic approach ensuring the Learners will always have the support of their peers and their Instructor every step of the way as they develop.
