Description

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

MLA College recognises the value that Service personnel, reservists, veterans, and military families make to our organisation. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant by:

  • Promoting the Armed Forces: Promoting the fact that we are an Armed Forces friendly organisation to our staff, customers, suppliers, contactors and the wider public through published literature, social media and our website;
  • Veterans: Supporting the employment of veterans, recognising military skills, qualifications, and accomplishments in our recruitment process;
  • Service Spouses and Partners: Endeavouring to offer a degree of flexibility in granting leave for service spouses and partners before, during and after a partner’s deployment;
  • Reserves: Support our employees who choose to be members of the Reserve Forces, including by accommodating their training and deployment where possible;
  • Students: Supporting our students when applying for extenuating circumstances that temporarily make it impossible to participate in a programme or undertake an assessment, due to the impact of operational requirements. This may apply to serving personnel, and/or their families.
