You are correct in saying somethings are now incorrect. Thing s have probably changed again since I graduated. Ask someone who is on IOT nicel y and they may be kind enough to do you a revised version. 0 0 #7 21-07-2007: 21st July 2007 22:58 AngryDave Full Member Join Date: Jan 2007 Location: Leamington Spa Posts: 80 Re: IOT Structure Does anybody have the updated/curretn version of the IOT course?

I can tell you all about the old one with APE X 1 + 2 etc. but am slightly clueless about bits of the new one! (Stuff in red). And before anyone slates me - I do not have access to the Intranet, I am no lon ger on my UAS and I have even googled this to try and get some more in depth kno wledge. Next try will be calling the AFCO!

Week 5: Leadership Hanger Exercises Week 6: Leadership Dynamic 1 is this like UPEX? The unassessed leadership with lego bric ks type stuff? Week 7-8: Fairbourne / Academics - OS Week 9: Military Skills (SAA) - what does SAA stand for? Week 10: Leadership Dynamic 2 Is this like APEX? I.e. you're assessed leadership test? Is it in the hangar or outside with pine poles etc. ** Review then leave **

Term 2: Week 11-12: Ex - Military Aid Obviously the new FLC! ** Review ** Week 13-15: Academics (Op Studies, ESK, Staff Studies, Written Comms, Leadership (Transactio nal)) - No idea what this means Week 16: Military Skills (NBC), Ex Plan (FP) - What does this week involve? Obviously som e is take time is taken up with PT, NBC etc. so I'm guessing you get a hours of kit prep? What else requires planning? Week 17-18: Ex - Force Protection - Is this the simulated terrorist/NBC type ex where you ha ve to control rebels type thing? Week 19: Academic Exams Week 20: Grad Support ** Recommended for Graduation then leave ** Term 3: Week 21: Leadership Academics - I guess this is stuff where you learn the hard core stuff behind leading such as what makes different type of people tick depending on wh at sort of person they are? Week 22-25: Carousel: Basic Air Warfare Course (BAWC) / Grantown-on-Spey / Care in Command / Station Visit - What sort of stuff goes on during BAWC? And is care in command the replacement for the desk job bit of old carousel?? Week 26: Ex Plan (COC) - is this planning for the ex the following week? Kit prep, giving peopl roles etc. Week 27-28: Ex - Combined Operations Centre (COC) - New peacekeeper except more focus is on running the Ops Centre to run the course below who are on ex-Mil Aid? Week 29: Graduation Prep Week 30: Graduation "Cadets will be recommended for graduation at the end of term 2 subject to succe ssful completion of the leadership exercises and academic studies. Confirmation of graduation will take place on week 8 of term 3 provided cadets have continued to maintain the correct level officer behaviours.

Sorry not sure about any of the rest so dont want to guess and g ive you the wrong info. All I know is that there are always three IOT running at the same time so each c ourse will have the week leave at the same time, Hence the two decisive Edge exe rcises are carried out together, Military aid will have happened a few weeks ear lier. (if that makes any sense)
