The Bronze and Silver leadership syllabi seem to have quietly appeared on Sharepoint. Does anyone know anything about these and whether they are now officially in place?
Last I heard they were being trialled but nothing had been released yet.
They are in the ACTO on SP therefore they are officially in place.
Yep. I ran a bronze course with another squadron last month. It went reasonably well for a first course. Bronze and silver leadership badges aren’t available in the supply chain yet apparently so you’d have to buy them if you want cadets to have the badge after the course.
Bronze can be done with other local squadrons/ sector and silver is delivered on a wing level.
Yeah, the course is all live now (you’re right though, it wasn’t ‘announced’).
After being designed and trialled in Staffordshire Wing, with input from a number of WTOs (and a couple of trial courses elsewhere) it went live a couple of months ago.
The material and assessments are all now live on SharePoint in the Training Officers sub site.
All the content is covered in the ACTO Annexes, however these aren’t attached to the main ACTO, but found in the relevant folder in the Training Officers Area. There are presentations, lesson resources, lesson plans and all the assessment material.
The course is designed so that Bronze can be run at multi-unit or sector level standalone or a JNCO course, and Silver is Wing level standalone or part of a SNCO course.
Staffordshire Wing have a timetable for a residential JNCO / SNCO / Leadership course that can be shared, and we’ve also designed a series of course report comments for each of the ‘point’ scores that give a bit more context on how to mark (and allow you to use the comments for a semi-generic report). Happy to share these as HQAC didn’t want to provide either with the syllabus.
