- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to ensure that qualifications gained by servicemen and women in the military are recognised by civilian employers.
- Answer
-
Over 600 nationally recognised qualifications are delivered to personnel across the single Services from Levels 1 to 8 on the Regulated Qualifications Framework, covering a wide range of subject areas including aviation, engineering, IT, leadership, and medical training.
Where possible, all mandatory military training and education is accredited and leads towards a full or partial nationally recognised qualification. In instances where this is not possible due to niche content, individuals may elect to undertake additional learning to achieve a full qualification or accreditation, supported by their Service. In addition to in-service military training and education, the Ministry of Defence provides funding for Service personnel and Service leavers to gain qualifications in subjects of their choosing.
