Slight aside from the topic. Here at Waterworld and CBK we are looking at reintroducing a raft of CC continuation training for all CC grades. As you may well know NECC for the last 6 months were awarded an NVQ on completion of training. This criterion will at some stage be applied to attain the rank of Purser / CSM and requirements for those who remain as CC for their entire career.
It is being developed by an outside company / associate trainers many of whom are ex BA CC. Like everything with BA it may turn out to be a worthwhile exercise or as happens all to often a waste of time and resources.
