How to apply for parachuting?

There’s some initial information and where to find further details in this thread:

Eligibility for Parachute Badge

I am struggling to find a clear answer to my question in previous discussions. I have heard rumours that if a cadet completes a static line parachuting course comprising of ground school training and a static line jump, they are eligible for the parachuting badge providing that the establishment they complete the course with is approved by the “British Parachute Association”. Can anyone please confirm if this is true or not. Thanks.
