SC - I happen to agree with you, but....
....you wouldn't be swayed by the fact your employer doesn't offer integrated courses????
========
Integrated & Modular.....same written exam, same IR, same difference.
You might not get a snazzy uniform with modular, but then it would only make you look like a security guard. Don't be swayed by a designer label, particularly when it costs £50,000!
The only substantive difference between the two routes is that with modular you're the boss.
You can pick and choose which FTO you use for each section, and if you're not happy at any stage, you can tell them to sling their hook when they ask for more money for the next stage.
