Vocation Specialist Course depends on which arms u will bare i.e. signals arti etc. if ur course is longer then 12 weeks, aft combine arms u will go back to ur institude to carry on ur course.
other then tt the rest are true

foundation term = 8 weeks
pro term = 14 weeks
CAT= 1 1/2 weeks

there are only 2 vocations that really i know of that require a longer pro term. armour and recce commanders course. for armour you still go for the CAT together with the same batch of SCC people. after the CAT, you'll go back to ATI for further training before actually receiving your chevrons.

RCC, you'll actually have to join the next CAT.

Professional Term is actually 13 wks or 14 wks?
Combined-Arms Term about 1 wk plus? Then, does it mean that after completing Pro-Term, all SCTs would leave their respective Arms Vocation Training Institutes, return to Specialist Cadet School(at Pasir Laba Camp) for Combined-Arms Term, and stay in there together till graduation and get 3SG rank?

[jadebear]

bslc= foundation term
aslc= professional term

maybe they wanna make it sounds more professional since specialist are usually underated

 

[yodatan]

they can try all they want but they somehow create perfect acronyms that basically describe the school

SCS = second class soldier
