Thanks for all of the input. I wasn't too clear in my initial post because I was still on the course. To make things clearer - I am a military investigator and the course I attended was not suitable for several reasons. Whilst the class all flew or engineered jet aircraft, the instructors spent the majority of the time teaching about recip engines! Now, I know you can draw parallels but... Also, while the class had an average experience level of 15-25 years in the aviation industry, the instructors spent ages teaching basic aero and basic systems. This really was a course for the hard of thinking! Please do not think that I want a course tailored to the military environment. We need to learn the lessons learned in other aviation areas as you need to learn our lessons. However, I want to find the course that builds on your experience level. In the military way, we want it to be a reasonably short course and the cost to be as low as possible. So, with that added info, if anyone has experience of a course that they would recommend, please either post it or PM me. Thanks in anticipation.
