What is FD?
The aim of FD is to improve operational
effectiveness through individual and
collective knowledge, trg and skills. This, in
turn, leads to the increased preparedness
and enhanced competence of all
personnel to carry out their duties, either in
situ or deployed on exercise or operations.
