Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what training defence transition service caseworkers receive.

All Defence Transition Service Case Workers and Veterans Welfare Services Welfare Managers receive role specific induction training on joining the organisation. They are also mandated to complete Civil Service Required Learning which includes safeguarding, prevent, diversity/inclusion, and data protection amongst others which must be completed at mandated intervals throughout each year.

Additional role specific training provision is provided through a combination of peer support and training from external organisations for specific skills and awareness on an as required basis.
