      Is it the case for corporals?

          Navy lads were only off a Pots course. One up for the Navy...

          (keep it quiet though...)

              THIRTEEN non-commissioned Naval Service officers made history yesterday when they became the first members of the Defence Forces to be presented with degrees at the National Maritime College.

                  A cert for a Pots course? Jesus wept! My pots course was all about sweating with a GPMG.Nothing clever about that. If the DF is so smart, how come they still won't run an in house Technical NCOs course(like every other grown-up air force world wide) for aircraft technicians in the AC and insist that they waste their time doing the Standard Army course(unlike the NS). Parts of the DF are still in the Stone Age..........

                    I don't think the Cadets is a degree, I thought that's why you went to UCG or whatever for your degree before/after commissioning.

                    Senior PDF C&S is recognised as some manner of postgrad I think.

                      I think you get awarded a degree in military studies but im open to correction on this one.

                        It was a cert, but all certs were upgraded by FETAC to ordinary degrees over the last couple of years.

                        The upgrade was not retrospective though.

                          Before the levels changed:

                          Standard NCOs got you a Certificate, it wasn't just the course you also had to have other courses completed (including Corps Std NCOs & PNCO cses) plus x number of tours overseas

                          Cadets on commissioning got a Diploma

                          C&S course can get I think it is an MA (from Maynooth), I think it is optional and they have to complete extra modules

                            Do the Gardai get similar certs/diplomas during training.
                            Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
                            Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
                            The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
                            The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
                            The best lack all conviction, while the worst
                            Are full of passionate intensity.

                              Yes.

                                A cert is still a cert. Diplomas became Ordinary Degrees in 2006.
