TA to Regulars
TA to Regulars
Hi, sorry if this has been covered before, but i couldn't find it using the search. I was wondering if you joined the TA, and completed all the training nessecary, and gained some experince, ie a year or a year and a half can you move onto the regulars, without having to do ADSC and the whole process, if so im guessing youll still have to do phase 1. Just wondering if anyone had any knowledge of this, thanks for the advice and sorry again if this has been covered before.

i applied for army but i got knocked back a year, something to do with my blood level, it was in another post, but i was just gonna leave it then i was invited to an open night on tuesday there, and i went along to see what it was like and i got invited to a medical, run and induction on saturday morning. So i decided to go along and try and see what happens.
I was hoping to pass the medical, and possibly even go on the summer challenge thing thats all over the news and papers. Then in a year or two move onto the regulars, either that or wait a year, but i dunno what do you guys think.

I am currently transferring from the TA into the regular army and it has been one big ball ache. I have been in the TA for 6 and a half years and have completed a 6 month operational tour and I still had to go through the whole careers office scenario and ADSC. I am now lucky enough to be allowed to go straight onto the phase 2 training (after much debate), but it has taken along time for me to get to this point.
For what its worth if you want to join the Regular Army just join, it's easier. No matter what experience you gain in the TA you will still have to go through the normal regular army process.
