CRS offers more choice for MOD Service leavers



Corporate Risk Systems (CRS) are pleased to announce that the MOD have now approved over 21 Health Safety and Environmental training courses and course packages for ELC funding offered by CRS. Ros Stacey UK Sales Director and MOD Account Manager said “this is excellent news for Service Leavers and ex-service leavers of the armed forces, they now have more choice in the HSE courses they would like to take as part of their resettlement into Civvy street. CRS have been training service and ex-service leavers now for nearly 10 years and each year the numbers increase by way of referral. With at least 10 new training packages on offer there is something for everyone” Ex-service leavers have 10 years in which to use their Enhanced Learning Credits (ELC) and recently more and more of the delegates attending  CRSs’ courses have left the forces sometime ago and found employment only to find it’s not quite right for them, they then look at other employment opportunities and what qualifications they may need. Ros went on to say “We recently had an gentleman who is now working as a Health & Safety Manager and the company he works for wanted him to obtain CMIOSH he had the NEBOSH National General Certificate and wanted to take the NVQ level 5 Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety (considered the best route to CMIOSH) he remembered that he had not claimed all his ELC’s but with only two weeks to go before the 10 years expired he had to work fast, he contacted me and we quickly got all his documents completed and he submitted them for approval by ELCAS, the acceptance and confirmation that the funding had been awarded came through with 24hours to spare”. Ros would advise all ex-service staff whether Army, RAF or Navy ‘check your records’ and see if there is still funding for you, it could help you to a better career.
