The benefits of reserve service will be better explained and civilian accreditation of military training will be extended. A new scheme to recognise employers - underpinned by the Corporate Covenant - will be introduced. MOD are developing open and predictable relationships by ensuring employers know who their reservists are, have better notice of training and mobilisation, and get feedback when a reservist has been mobilised. A National Relationship Management scheme to address national employers and trade bodies will be established and MOD will also work with employers and educational organisations to find opportunities for those between education and work, or for those not in education, work or training.
