ACF Familiarisation and Assessment Package

As I am sure you are all aware by now there are changes afoot with regard to the way we select potential adults to join the ACF. This is a national change in policy and procedure and one which I am confident will be delivered in Kent by September 2012.

In short the key aims of the new process will be:

a. To ensure that all potential CFAVs are subjected to a rigourous assessment process which provides auditable evidence of how they were selected (or rejected) prior to enrolment and training.
b. To provide candidates with full details of the commitment and expectations as CFAVs in Kent ACF.
c. To provide a common approach across all ACF counties, giving commanders assurance that the selection process is fit for purpose and able to withstand scrutiny.
d. To prevent the waste of resources that occurs when potential CFAV fail to complete induction and training.

I expect to be able to brief the Bde Comd at Annual Camp on Kent's progress with implementing the new package, which has to be in place and working by 01 Sep 12. There will inevitably be some changes in the amount of work, time and logistic resources required to implement the package and would ask all CFAV and PSS to work together for a successful implementation.
