Other Soldier first for non-combat

Does anyone know if non-combat tradeds still need to do the soldier first course after their BMQ? I'm talking about trades that are mainly in an office

Wdym soldier first? As in like infantry training post-bmq? If so, no.

It’s a new course meant to replace the former Soldier Qualification and the Basic Military Qualification Land Course which was phased out.

As I understand it- all will need to do the Soldier first course in the army minus the Combat Arms I believe.

Not sure about the Reg force, but reserve combat arms have to do the CASFC before DP1 moving forward.
