Will investigate for you if required. I left DFS and had to do a full training course with a local brigade. You are now correct with IPDS, that you could probably find a LAFB that will at least give you the opportunity to transfer across.
I would try a few including the Brigades in the North East Region as they have started to take transfers from Retained Firefighters.
Need any help send me an email.
Any views I express are my own and not my employers. Still confused!

I am also contemplating a transfer from the DFRS in the near future and would be grateful for any info on this topic.  I am currently in the retained and am looking to use these competencies.
