|  8 adult staff from Warwickshire & Birmingham Wing attended a Staff Development BASIC Course at RAF Cosford from 27-29 th May 2010 .
The course, which started on Friday evening ran through until Sunday afternoon and covered all the areas required under the BASIC training including child welfare, staff roles, ATC and RAF organisation, health and safety, risk assessment and the roles of squadron staff. On Saturday evening all the course attendees were given a host of differing scenarios that had to be discussed and some good debates ensued.
Following completion of the course, the staff were given a drill display by cadets attending the Drill Development Course which was been run concurrently by the Wing Learning and Development Training Team.
The Wing Learning and Development Officer, Squadron Leader Martin Harrison said, "These courses continue to be a vitally important aspect of adult training. They are constantly evolving and changing and are an ideal way for more experienced staff to keep abreast of changes as well as providing a lead in for newly appointed adults. It is worth remembering that the course is mandatory for newly appointed CIs within six months of appointment and for all staff before attendance at the ATF RAF Cranwell."
