This e-learning is designed to:

  • give an insight into Service life and culture
  • highlight the ‘unique obligations and sacrifices’ made by the Armed Forces community
  • use the ‘voice’ of members of this community to give an insight into their lived experiences
  • explain the Armed Forces Covenant and the new Covenant Duty
  • explain what staff need to be able to do to support this community
  • provide staff with sources of information and support to use in their role or to pass on to members of the Armed Forces community.
Who is this e-learning for?

This e-learning is for anyone working within a public sector or other organisation across the UK, who needs to understand what the Armed Forces Covenant is, that there is now a Covenant Duty which applies within Education, Housing and Healthcare, and how you can support the Armed Forces community.

In terms of roles, this e-learning is appropriate for those involved in a ‘customer facing’ role in any part of the organisation.
