At what point during my resettlement should I do this training?

We believe that you should not leave your training until the last minute. Attending the training early allows you to use your remaining time in the forces more effectively to help with the transition to civilian life and work. It also helps avoid any problems associated with last minute call ups. Again this can be discussed fully at your interview.
