 ===== Class and Skill Training (14+) =====
-A few lucky students get to continue their training, although most go on to start their adult life as L1 commoners.  Some students go back to work in their family business. Others find a mentor who will teach skills in exchange for menial service, while others can find the money to pay for extra schooling at a college or an academy.   Use the [[https://www.d20pfsrd.com/alignment-description/description/|standard Starting Age rules]]  to work out how long training takes for characters to retrain into a PC class.   For an ++NPC Class|//( Treat Aristocrat and  Spontaneous Adepts as Intuitive Classes, Warriors as Self-Trained Classes while Expert and other Adepts are Trained Classes,)//++ it takes about half the indicated time.

+IF a group of PCs take a L1 commoner under their wing, and provide more intensive (or relevant) training, progress can go quite quickly, but, this probably means carting the L1 commoner along with you as you adventure.  However, during fights they might well be sent away to 'look after the horses' or something similar.
+In games with Mass Combat battles for NPCs, the Trainee is assumed to take part and probably learns a new weapon skill  :)

   * **West Hurst Military College** – A small residential college in New Stetven that caters to noble and wealthy families.  Students generally leave as Aristocrats, or Cavaliers.  Some graduates (children of nobles or high ranking officers) go straight into their parent’s Old Unit, or another one they control / Command / Own (I told you they were wealthy).  Others finish up as Squire to a family friend.
-  * **Squire Quinn’s Military School** – A small residential college, just outside Restov, that prepares the children of less well-off families for a life in military service.  Most students finish up as Warriors or military Auxiliaries and go on to join military units or mercenary bands.   This is an ideal place for donations from Good or lawful PCs, and is also a good place to provide a future for all those Waifs that you pick up.

   * **Diomedes' Academy of Arm**s - a rural Varisian school that specialises in teaching the Shield Wall feat.  It turns out well drilled squads of Warriors -  with a few Fighters & Rangers thrown in for good measure.
   * **Haldane House** – Part of the Northern Schools group in Restov.  Students are responsible for finding their own accommodation but can either study full-time or part time.  There are three dojos, specialising in different techniques and specialities, but students can move between them.  The initial Dojo teaches basic weapon and armour skills, while the Rondolero and Aldori dojos teach duelling etiquette and styles.  Haldane House provides training for all classes of people -  from minor aristocrats right through to commoners who want to better themselves.

   * **The Horcroft Library** – a sophisticated library, in New Stetven, open to scholars of all sorts.  For a small fee you can browse and study among the books and artefacts of The Local Collection, The Religious Collection, The Arcane Collection and Lord Rudy’s Collection.   ++Note|//(Although you must have skill slots to spend you could develop the following Knowledge Skills – Local, Religion, Arcana, Planes, Dungeoneering & Nobility)//++ \\ ++If you use my Campaign Rules|//(Treat the he Horcroft Library as a normal library with extra galleries.  pathfinder:campaign_systems:organisations:academic page)//++
   * **The Academy of the Arts** – in Pitax.  Training for bards, artists and entertainers of all types – studying there is cheap, as it is subsidised by the government, but it might not be of the highest quality ….
-  * **The House of the Gauntlet** – Iomedae’s Temple in New Stetven, trains priests – be they Divine Adepts, Clerics, Paladins or Justicars.  The training is free, so long as you adhere to the faith and can deal the  particularly strict and frugal lifestyle expected of acolytes under training.
