PhillipG,
A lot of the training is/will be simulator based. Warton already has a simulator set up for SRVL, there may even be a Yout*be video of it (check the main F-35 thread).
The bigger issue is getting everyone else to be ready for a large, busy flight deck. At least there is a team of people looking into this issue and both deckcrew, aircrew and engineers are being appropriately positioned to give them some exposure to this dangerous environment prior to QEC.
