Can you start in the army as a CMT and progress onto other roles such as nurse or ODP?
I'm considering all of my role options and will need to pick up some training (A Levels/access course) prior to directly joining as a nurse/ODP if starting as a CMT and prgressing isn't possible. As I'm in my late 20's I want to make sure I'm in the best position to join

Hi Matt,
Sometimes CMTs do transfer to train in other roles, however they still need to meet the entry criteria for that role, and even then they may not always be able to transfer. Some CMTs will gain the qualifications needed to meet the entry criteria while they are serving if they do not already have them. -

Yes, it's fairly common for CMTs to gain extra driving qualifications (cat C, towing etc..)
