    Excellent!! Thank you! So I am assuming that because of its length that the rumours I have heard of SQ and BIQ and DP1 being combined into a more streamlined course has actually gone ahead and happened.

    Haha!! Would you happen to know how long DP1 is now? I had asked awhile ago in another thread what the course progression for 031 is now as I know they have gone through a lot of changes as of late.

    Excellent, thanks for the info. Hope that the "temp fix" continues for a few courses at least. I am crossing my fingers to get into the mix come winter/fall, either way should be a good change of pace! Trying to piece everything together. As I have stated in another thread awhile ago, you always...

    Rog EO. Thanks for the info. Is this in-house DP1 looking like its going to become something of the norm from the Bn level? Because if that is the case obviously #1 its going to cut down on expenditures for sending guys off for training, makes sense financially for all the number crunchers up at...

    Ah roger. Yeah we don't have a house here in Victoria so thats all squared away. And yes X its true just starting. Just getting ducks in a row to ensure we are prepared. Thankfully as far as I know, when the government started to reduce the number of troops in garrison, they overkilled it. I was...

    Thanks Strike and GINge! I know the MFRC here at least is the culprit for the high childcare costs, they are sitting at $1800/mth/child lol with a 2 year waiting list. Will give them a call and find out if they have a waiting list :) If anyone can think of anything else I should be thinking of...

    Excellent!! Thanks folks. Just found out the Anthony Henday Drive highway should be completed by this fall, which would greatly reduce the driving time to the base. But after looking at the house prices its a little expensive for the most part. Do either of you, or anyone else know what child...

    So I have decided to take the long vigorous task of going from Navy to the Army (3 PPCLI hopefully). Currently on paternity leave until 27 Oct 14. My wife, daughter and I will be heading out to Edmonton to scope the place out later this summer, but our time is limited and I was just wondering if...

    I do know that all of the "in house" portions of PLQ will count as it is all the same across the board now as Distance Learning...Fully expected to do the rest of the Army PLQ. What is the new format for training? I am assuming they rolled everything into BIQ instead of having two separate...

    Hey everyone. New to this forum so a little about myself. I have been in the RCN since 2004, recently just completed PLQ. So here is the situation. My wife is a 3rd year student in university and we will be moving to Brandon, Manitoba area in the very near future. My choices were simple...Quit...
