All Australian Defence Force aircrew are required to complete a 15-day SERE course delivered by the Combat Survival Training School. As well as teaching survival skills, including how to evade enemy personnel, students are instructed in techniques to resist interrogation and escape captivity. In 2014, it was reported that the course was "one of the hardest things that any air force flyer will do".[2]
