I recently retired and was wanting to be a CIC officer. You touched on something with the reference requirements. It was a difficult task as people rotate through positions quickly and could not think of anyone at the required rank level that fit the parameters they listed. Given that and...

I think your analogy of  this is spot  on. 

  Surveying perhaps, if your school offers it.  Perhaps a physics course related to the subject of projectile motion or ballistics. 

Esquimalt is a good area with an undeserved reputation.  I lived in the Westshore twice,  Saanich, and Esquimalt twice, including presently.  It is an excellent hub to all points of the city, close to work, and has many nice parks, off leash areas for the dog, beach access, including many...

Good luck with things.  Hopefully some traction somewhere will be seen. 

If you are from BC, check out Nides.ca,  they offer online correspondence courses for free at the high school level.

Is there a reason that recruiting centers like to keep this information to themselves? 

Now that is funny. 

Keep in mind that they can only load  so many people on a BMQ course, and your sons chosen trade is only one of many that require people.  There will be more courses and as they pick their way through the list in the future I am sure his number will come up.

I was wondering if any current or recent Weapons Engineering Techs would know what the typical class size is for the non SEP course run at the fleet school.  I was also curious what time of year they start and if they are running more than one serial.    Are these courses run at Esquimalt or...

It appears to me that part of the problem is bottlenecks at the medical file reveiw, and security/background checks.    I just did my file update and now have to provide another list of references.  They will get the same list as before with a similar result, but will still take time to...

This all makes me question whether the ability to hold dual citizenship is something that should be addressed.  And what negative or positive outcomes would result.  Would the sovereignty movement lose votes if any advantage of Canadian citizenship  be lost if they were successful?

This one came to mind,  always gave me a laugh. "Navy, because joining the army is just stupid"  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Oi-D2_r_Oc
