six was introduced) to 4 October 2021, a total of <del class="ministerial">81,306</del><ins
class="ministerial">12,520</ins> MOD <ins class="ministerial">civil service</ins>
staff completed or refreshed their DIMP in accordance with the three-yearly cycle.
Completion data is not held by grade within the Defence Learning Environment. Longer
