Compulsory Course Briefing Day Attendance

Prior to submitting your online application, you are required to participate in a compulsory Course Briefing Day (CBD). The purpose of the day is to provide an in-depth overview of how the course is structured, the commitment required to study and how to claim accreditation for previous qualifications or experience gained throughout your career. The course tutors will also guide you through the application process.

We offer two types of CBD: 

Attendance – An opportunity for students to physically attend a CBD event either at the university or selected military stations.

Online – An opportunity for students to participate in an online CBD which is delivered in real time but via the internet, thus negating the requirement to travel to the university or one of the selected military stations.

If you would like to participate in a CBD, please contact the HM Forces team.
