Diploma Induction Scheme
-
hey guys...read from the SAF website that diploma graduates serving NS, they can apply for this scheme... and the bond is 4 yrs.
Do the applicant need to be selected for OCS? When can he apply? Any info on this? -
and yes... does the bond includes your remaining NS liability when u sign on?
-
never heard of this scheme. which website did u read it from? my guess is it has nothing to do with going to ocs. and as for liability, they have their ways of calculating - whether its 1:1 or 2:1 or watever (meaning one day in regular service is equivalent to one day of nsf service, or two days in reg equivalent to one day nsf and so on), u will have to find out from arc.
