I was told by CATC back in Feb/March that the course for area anyway had been changed and the unit placements had been cust out the time spent at CATC. This means the area course anyway is now approx 10 months with longer spent OJT when you are posted to your unit. I was given a break down of the course then with specific dates but these will now be changed with the June course being knocked back.
Best to check with CATC at Bournemouth for up to date info.
