RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION 2010: GREATER NUMBERS, HIGHER QUALITY AND LONGER SERVICE.

Recruiting and retaining the individuals with the key skills required by modern militaries is the greatest challenge facing future operational effectiveness.

The current economic environment lends itself favourably to recruitment and retention, but this is a situation that will not be sustained indefinitely.

Instead, in order to ensure the force of the future has enough skilled personnel, militaries will need to evolve the way they interact with potential recruits and current soldiers to match the changes taking place within society at large.

DefenceIQ’s Recruitment and Retention 2010 will address these challenges by bringing a mixture of military experts, key civilian contractors and leading academics to discuss best practise, lessons learned and future strategies for improving recruitment and retention.

Key themes to be covered at Recruitment and Retention 2010:

  • Hear how leading nations such as the United Kingdom and the United States are developing their recruitment strategies
  • Learn how to effectively use social media to interact with potential recruits and develop your branding
  • Gain an exclusive insight into how recruitment and retention are interlinked, and how you can reduce early attrition through better recruitment processes
  • Understand how to retain the individuals with the skills your force requires through promotion models, compensation models, resettlement and transition.
