The establishment figure for grade 5 and 6 technicians in the CIS corps is 202 personnel, of which there are currently 66 vacancies. A total of 62 personnel are in training across the Army, Naval Service and Air Corps who will be eligible to receive tech 5 pay upon graduation from the CIS Trainee Technician Scheme.
