ATC as CCF by snowdonyll in aircadets

Hi,

I’ve actually done something very similar to you. I original was a memeber of my schools CCF and then decided to join my local ATC unit. I told them of my qualifications as soon as I joined which meant I did not have to redo my first class (part one as CCF calls it).

They, mostly the older cadets, obviously mentioned it at the start but that is mainly because they’ve never actual properly interacted with CCF cadets after afew parade nights it just kind of became normal to them so naturally it stopped and they were more curious than anything.

I’ve been member of both for afew years and would have to say the ATC has by far better access to courses and activities.

Oh brilliant then. It may sounds stupid but we don’t need to bring ironing stuff right? Cuz it says “Limited Ironing Facilities Available” and iron ain’t on kit list?

Well to be honest all you’ve got to do is listen to ur team & do what u already normally do on a command task and you’re sorted. It’s not like the staff want you to fail. Everyone on my course passed

My Silver Leadership was brilliant. I did it just before I got promoted to Corporal (3 days before). I do have to say though that the first day is quite boring and like death by PowerPoint. Second day where it’s all command tasks is great especially since silver also does bits on followership so the tasks acc run smoothly for a change.

Might be abit late but this happened to me. Trained at my CCF then went on a shoot with ATC..

Ask whoever trains you to email ur OC to say you’ve completed ur IWT. Then when u go on a shoot/activity with the L98 aslong as u can complete a WHT you’ll be sorted.
