Information about how military personnel and their families can get more support and extra help from Defence Transition Services when leaving the armed forces.

Overview

Defence Transition Services ( DTS) can provide information and support for those service leavers and their families who are most likely to face challenges as they leave the armed forces and adjust to civilian life. DTS work directly with you to provide information and facilitate access to the support you need, whether that be from another government department, local authorities, the NHS or trusted charities.

What we can help you with

DTS can sign post and facilitate access to support on the following:

Mental health

Physical health

Drugs and alcohol misuse

Training, education and employment

Housing, accommodation and relocation (including MOD Referral Scheme and civilian housing briefs)

Finance, debt and benefits

Children, family and relationships

Supporting agencies

How we can help you

If you are a service leaver, who is recognised by their unit as someone who may need extra support on leaving the armed forces, beyond that which is already provided by Defence and the Royal Navy, Army or Royal Air Force, you can be referred to DTS. As a service leaver or family member, you can also self refer to DTS. DTS clients may also be referred to us by Defence contractors, such as the Career Transition Partner ( CTP) or by third parties, such as charities or local authorities who have been approached for help.

DTS works with you on a one-to-one basis, building a trusted relationship in order to fully understand your needs, coordinate the right sources of information and simplify your access to the support you need.

Defence Holistic Transition Policy

DTS was established in October 2019 as part of Defence's Holistic Transition Policy (part 1: directive) (, 1.84 MB) and Holistic Transition Policy (part 2: guidance) (, 1.94 MB) or JSP100 as it is known internally. Details of DTS can be found in chapter two of the policy document.

How to make a referral

There are two ways to make contact with DTS if you, or someone you know, might benefit from DTS 's support:
In-service referrals - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Self-referral process and third-party referrals - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).

Please contact DTS via our central email address:
DBSVets-DTS-Central@mod.gov.uk

Most qualifications have a difficulty level. The higher the level, the more difficult the qualification is.

If you need to know the level of a qualification, you can:

Qualifications at the same level sometimes cover different amounts of the same subject.

Example

AS levels and A levels are both level 3, but you study AS levels over 1 year and A levels over 2 years. So you learn more about the subject at A level.

Contact the National Careers Service for advice about qualification levels if you're in England.
