Hey Jack.s
relax man, you are probably frustrated, yet some of the information you seek is opsec - it involves movements of materials and personnel of the defence forces no matter how mundane you consider that.
Go to your Corporals - ask them - repeatedly - use the chain of command - exhaust it
chances are there will be a full time recruit training period this year as there are whispers that recruitment will commence sometime around the end of the first quarter.
however:
firstly, what is your rank ... officially? if you dont know, you CAN ask this of the chain of command.
note, you shouldn't be considering a PNCO course if you have not completed the recruit phase and are not a full 3 star - i think this would prohibit you from attending it.
however, if you have been promoted to 3 star - i.e. if you ask the above question and are told that you are in fact a 3 star - (your official rank is on your payslip) then you can be considered for a PNCO course.
BTCs were disbanded and the RDFTA will now run this course as far as im aware.
There is a YO's and a standard NCOs course being run this year.
PNCO courses usually begin in the first half of a year and joining instructions are normally sent out by now so I have a feeling the next one wont be until next year.
hope this helps - calm down man."He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."

Fair enough on the BTC's - whats their official status so? i was told that they were absorbed into the RDFTA so assumed that they had ceased to be?"He is an enemy officer taken in battle and entitled to fair treatment."
"No, sir. He's a sergeant, and they don't deserve no respect at all, sir. I should know. They're cunning and artful, if they're any good. I wouldn't mind if he was an officer, sir. But sergeants are clever."

They have been absorbed into the PDF BTC's as an RDF cell, although are substantially smaller than the pre re org establishment, I won't go into specific numbers, but the taskings remain the same, ie running of recruit, 2-3 star and PNCO training.What are you cackling at, fatty? Too much pie, that's your problem.

...Wrong
The parts about the rank is correct. If you have not been published in Routine Orders as promoted to 2* and 3* by your C.O then the only course you can do is a Recruit Course, and if you are a two star, a Three Star Course for most units. There is not much getting around this.
Only then is PNCO an option."Are they trying to shoot down the other drone? "
"No, they're trying to fly the tank"

There will be a course this year
