Have a look on the army website and speak to an online advisor, get it straight from the recruiters mouth.

But i think you'll find the requirements on the mpgs and army recruitment websites, not teaching you to suck eggs mate but google is a wonderful tool!!!

I have done the mpgs thing mate and it is 4 years minmum service. This is from any service or the TA. Yeah work that out? someone with 4 years service in the TA (not slating the TA) yet someone with 3 years regular service cannot strange but true. I did 10 years regular mate and 3 years with the mpgs. Dont know your age but would warn you it is aimed at the elder gentlemen shall we say, and IT is a brilliant job for the blokes. But if your a young thruster and easily board then it isnt a job for you. It was a great stop gap for me but 3 years was like ground hog day. Though I wont slag it as it serves it purpose very well and can give you quality family time. with all the benefits of the regular army IE quarters and education opputunities.
