Foundation Tour
Upon completion of your training , you will graduate as an RAF ICT Tech and be sent on your first tour .
Opportunities exist across the country for your first tour , but wherever you are sent you will be using your skills to immediately support the RAF ’ s outputs . You will join a team responsible for managing your unit ’ s cyberspace systems .
A first tour could be as part of 90 Signals Unit , which includes the RAF ’ s deployable expeditionary communications team . This team deploys around the globe and a job here would have you supporting global operations by providing the cyberspace systems that enable communications back to the UK effectively .
Alternatively , you could be employed on an aircraft squadron , maintaining and supporting the aircraft ’ s mission support system that enables the aircraft to carry out its sorties . Another current role for your first tour is to work within an information Hub , where you will be the first port of call for providing advice on software applications , information management and system administration , or repairing IT systems and installing software and hardware .
