RDFFRA can get involved when course notifications are not complete causing RDF to lose out in training and they also have to book time off work to attend.
I should add that commanders should look at the ATED to ensure for example that their companies/batteries etc get the trained people in the LSW/driving/whatever skills they need on a rolling basis . Anyone else can take a look to see perhaps what courses they may want to go for but not mandatory . This is nothing to do with RDF tho and is the same across the military.. Still need to watch the unit noticeboard tho

the ATED isn’t the advertisement of a course, it is for planning purposes only and you can’t apply for any course until the Calling Notice/JIs are issued
it isn’t explicitly in the scope of representation a lot of things aren’t but that is up to the DF/DoD to say outside of scope and there the discussion ends. Could be argued that people are being done a on “
If something is outside the scope of representation, DoD/DF will just refuse to discuss it unless RDFRA can argue that it is.
For example, “systems and general criteria governing promotion” (people not being notified of career courses that are required for promotion) or “the administration of pay, allowances and gratuities” (people unable to be paid on time due to lack of notice).
not sure why you made the point on RDFRA
But one thing is for sure, notification of courses has gone from bad to worse

I didnt start the RDFRA point; they might be able to make a representation IF management are in a mood to listen but no obligation but thats it , no c&a for us . Neither did I start the banging on about the ATED. the map is not the ground as they say. Most courses are predictable especially as numbers are so low and most corps and major schools stuff/courses is very well known in the respective corps and units as instructors dont leap from the ground , but its predictable to a quarter or so not better especially if planned far in advance due to a huge variety of reasons."Are they trying to shoot down the other drone?

absolutely well flagged but the point remains:
- calling notices aren’t getting to units (to action them)
- notification of successful nomination aren’t getting individuals in a timely manner (in know of cases where 2-3 days notice prior to commencing the course).

someone edited their post. There is no reason I would have brought RDFRA up first
As for your other points I dont think its widespread . For example all career courses were flagged far in advance this year and I've just seen our unit notice board full of course notifications. As for nominations not sure what to tell you if its G7 or unit issue , no idea

I raised it because its all I hear, bring it to them, the person should look at themselves and the lack of work they and the other "leaders" do but its always some else's fault.
I'm not recommending it because I don't like you and so on. It's ridiculous, a cul would short out a lot.

I would say that it is very much location dependent, and also down to the follow through from the RLO's in the units. Early and frequent engagement with candidates is going to be key.
