Are you referring to the ETS? Educational and Training Services?

I haven't looked too much into it at this point however I have always had an interest in joining the Army but didn't feel strongly enough about it until now. I have a degree and wanted to look into officer training but there isn't much on the website about that

You will need to be successful during the officer application process, then you must complete the commissioning course at Sandhurst. From there you will learn your role at Worthy Down barracks and then most likely start your career in an education centre
