The programme includes: • The Foundations • The Values • The Behaviours • Sergeant leadership preparation • Promotion interview preparation • Structured answer development PREPARE FOR THE PROMOTION BOARD Develop stronger examples and practise answering competency-based questions before you are sitting in front of the board. Interview preparation helps you: • Practise realistic promotion questions • Structure stronger answers • Understand the STAR-L framework • Compare your approach with model responses • Identify areas that need more work • Build confidence through repetition BUILT AROUND SHIFT LIFE You do not always have an hour available to revise.
