I would ask the person who told you to start thinking about it. You'll get no help on here apart from this advice - If you have used your name as a username, change it quickly.
"The Intelligence officer - or non-commissioned officer - with his enquiring mind, his refusal to accept everything at face value, and with his interest in what has happened limited to the help it will be in in estimating what is going to happen, is "different", and therefore still, to a certain extent, suspect."

not another 'who do i ask' thread!!! as the blind king said, ask the bloke who told you to think of something to do, and you need to change your user name because anyone with access to records can gain every bit of info about you. Call it OPSEC.
............and what is a summer challenger? is that 2 week in ibiza trying to get laid

Wah shield down.
As for courses..not sure what they are. I certainly remember putting my name down for quite a few, along with others, but never hearing about them again.

Depends on your trade really.
Ask your PSI.Chances of promotion are inversely related to how hard you work.
