We understand no one wants to sit through a BCT when they've done them a million times, for that reason we don't force everyone to do a BCT upon joining, instead the recruitment form lets us know which gaps we need to fill in. 

Similar to the BCT we feel like typically too much energy goes into certifications, especially those that essentially boil down to just using a different weapon. Unofficially we have two separate categories: Basic and Specialist. Basic roles can be done by anyone without any training (an example being marksman). For specialist roles we ask that only individuals capable of performing that role take the equipment for it. We provide training upon request (an example being AT/AA).

We have a system in place to track attendance, when a player reaches certain milestones they receive rewards. We avoid the hassle of name changes for reward milestones, we do however change names when we need to identify in-game command structure.
