Basic Training
Interrupted training is allowed, but if basic training is interrupted for more than two years further periods of training will be required.
Extended periods of leave for children or illness is allowed. If it is felt that the leave has interfered with training sufficiently, extended periods of training may be required.
Part-time and job sharing is permitted. At least two of the six years of training must be full time and the workload must be a minimum of 20% of the full time load.
