• Move under GETC• Routine Engagement Visits – new name for SAVs

- Good range of FD activities- Excellent budget management- Support of generic Stn TD – i.e. HF & OJTIT- Lack of Stn wide TD plans- Lack of TD visits

• External Training – robust operational or business need

• SNCO TD – TAC tasked with a Job Analysis• TDOC – 10 Oct – 2 Nov 12 (1 week combined with

NCOs).

LF Matters of the Moment

• Move under GETC• Station Advisory Visits

- Good engagement strategies- Impressive range of PL opportunities- Successful Open Days- Some combined TD/PLA section visits- Others – lack of visits

• Adult Literacy and Numeracy Qualification• Learning Forces Awards• PLA Forum• PLA Seminar – 8/9 Oct• Here to Help!
