The Financial Aspects of Resettlement Briefing is run by the Forces Pension Society and usually lasts all day. There is normally an input of generic financial advice from a qualified Financial Advisor (and the option of a follow-up personal financial discussion) as well as a handout giving further points of contact. Attendance at these events is treated as duty (so Allowances may apply). They can be attended at any point in a Service person's career, although priority is given to Service leavers with 9 months or less to discharge. Briefings are tailored, where numbers permit, to different rank groups, and spouses are welcome to attend.
In Germany the briefings are held three times a year in various locations - call Herford RRC or your local AEC for dates and venues.
FAR briefings take various formats dependant on location and target audience:
* AFPS = Armed Forces Pension Scheme (75 & 05)
