RNZAF Officer training

[zohck]

Hi,

I've just been invited to attend IOTC starting may 27th and was wondering if anyone here has been through the process and could give me a personal account of what to expect.

More importantly, I also wanted to know if there were any steps i could take now, that would best help me prepare both physically and mentally for training.

Just fyi: in terms of physical training, I continue to work on pushups and go for runs a few times a week. I attend a personal training session once a week who is specifically helping me ramp up my prep for the physical aspect of training.

So if there is anything more I can do, please feel free to either PM or post here.

regards

I haven't done the IOTC, but I have completed recruit course. From what I hear IOTC is recruit course crammed into 7 weeks, plus 7 weeks of officer specific training.. or something along those lines.

The best tip I can offer with the PT is practice doing the pushups after a run, make sure you can still do 30+ when you are exhausted from running. Oh, and during PT... don't fidget, don't move unless they tell you to. Squat pulses hurt.
