David,
You must be older than 15 years and 9 months to apply for the Army. There are two intakes to Harrogate each year, March and September, You need to be between 16 and 17 years, 5 months when you start.
Following harrogate You’ll then learn how to be a Combat Medical Technician at the Defence School of Healthcare Training, Birmingham. This takes 22 weeks. When you finish, you’ll be a Class 2 Combat Medical Technician, with a level 3 Diploma and Care Certificate. Trade training includes theory and practical modules, as well as clinical placements in Defence Primary Healthcare medical centres.
Hope this helps.
