Enhanced Learning Credits

[junglie-driver]

so what have the guys been spending their ELCAS on? Would love to be able to use it on something fun.........

[drugsdontwork]

Slight drift but can I use my SLCs on the mil bridging package?

[junglie-driver]

used my SLC on the Bridging Course from Bristol. Used 2x ELC for my CPL/IR. If you book the course at the end of one financial year and the beginning of the next it'll help really help the finances! Good luck. JD

Tourist, perhaps you should visit your FD centre to get an up to date list of what you can actually do with your ELC's. It will be quicker than waiting here for an answer.

But nowhere near as entertaining

Perhaps those in the flying training pipeline could use their ELCs to get some flying training...

Really Annoyed

"I don't know what you were hoping to get out of this thread but an ELC is just a humdrum initiative to promote lifelong learning amongst members of the Armed Forces. "

It is the very fact of its mundane wholesomeness which makes the attempt to subvert it in the interest of entertainment worthwhile.

Let me guess, you are the life and soul of the party?

[Tourist]

Ok, I give up on fun and/or entertaining.

Anybody used elcs for an MCC course recently? Looking for one that does it in a big jet sim if possible.

[Really annoyed]

You see Tourist. ELC's are just not funny. Even when you try to be serious people are just not interested.

Back to the top though in the hope somebody might take pity on your plight. A failed comedian and now nobody will take you seriously. Shocking state of affairs.

ELC usage - before the scheme is withdrawn!

Any posts about what ELCs were used for other than flying would be greatly appreciated?

You only work once, and you can laugh at all those suckers trying to build up their pension

Edited to say: Really Annoyed, bet you can't spot who the bell end on your Sqn is.....

I'll help you out with the humourous facts - there was a (female) SAC who used her ELCs to do a pole-dancing course. Better employment prospects than being a Supplier apprently....

The rules don't constrain you too much - only your imagination limits you!

[xenolith]

Rector....she was an Ops Assistant.

Tourist, junglie - driver. Try the OU web site they may still do the 'Womens Studies' course. It wont teach you much, that you dont already know, but the summer school is an amazing target rich envronment!

[junglie-driver]

Like your action! Looking to do something outside the UK, preferably somewhere in the middle east? Don't think there are any pole dancing classes in Dubai...

[Really annoyed]

I'll help you out with the humourous facts - there was a (female) SAC who used her ELCs to do a pole-dancing course.

Oh for goodness sake she use her resettlement grant for that course not any ELC's. Why is that even humorous? She is probably making a good living out of it.

High spirits, if I were on your sqn it wouldn't take long to work out that it was you.

[high spirits]

Really annoyed? Or just Really cr@p at bantering back..........?

[high spirits]

Seriously fella, that was distinctly below average....

[high spirits]

Are you 'Admin Guru' in disguise...?

[Tourist]

It turns out that you have to use military accomodation whilst on a course if it is available. This seems reasonable enough if there is a handy wardroom/officers mess, but..
Does anyone know off the top of their head what "available" means, ie distance from the training centre, standard of accomodation etc.
I'd rather not try to complete a course whilst living in transit accomodation, a dormitory or a cadet hall.
Any thoughts?

[OCCWMF]

Unless it was shared with other pole-dancers presumably...
