RAF Movers

Post by adambatley »

Hi all,

Just have a couple of questions for current RAF Movers.

1) Where do you do your trade training and how long is it?
2) Where can I read up on the trade? As the info on the RAF Careers website is very limited.

Any feedback will be appreciated.

Thanks.

I have since found on the web that Mover trade training is 16 weeks followed by a posting to Brize Norton or Lyneham of approx 18 months, then back to DMS for 10 wekks further training.

Does this sound right?
