The Official Definition Of Education
The Oxford Dictionary defines Education' as "The process of receiving or giving systematic instruction, especially at a school or university." 

During your service you are constantly learning and developing, making new connections, working with others as part of a team and constantly improving your ability to conduct your specific role. This includes peer mentoring and coaching your colleagues to get the most out of them and to make the mission a success.

Variations in level will depend on factors in your service career including role, rank, courses attended and appointments.

With our program you can engage as an Educator from the outset of your career. All our programs are linked to professional bodies in the UK and Internationally, so you can be sure that the certification you receive are recognised by the industry and employers you are looking to work with.
