Med Tech is in high demand so you should expect some type of offer soon. it is also OSL so the CFRC Prod O does the selection. Let us know when you get the call.

I suggest you wait until after your first semester marks come out, early February. that way you can get started and get the added education points for your first semester's course. The higher the average the better the score which helps your overall Military Potential score. Make sure you know...

I would strongly advise NOT using your doctor as they are almost impossible to get on the phone during normal working hours when the telephone reference checks are usually made.  Teachers are also hard to contact unless you get their home number. The easiest ones are  retired family friends  /...

Bmetcalf, Being Merit listed means you have completed all the application processes and are now eligible to be selected. Dependant upon your occupation choices and who actually makes the selection Open selection List (OSL) are selected by the CFRC Production / Selection Officer and National...

The ships tours are open to the public however focused tours for current applicants and potential applicants can be arranged through the nearest recruiting centre.

Summer ends officially 21 Sep so it's correct even though the weather won't cooperate. The stop in PEI is likely a namesake visit to Charlottetown. CFR FCS

HMCS Charlottetown will be stopping in a number of ports on their summer Great Lakes Deployment. She will be in Windsor 12-15 Sept, Port Colbourne 16 Sept, Hamilton 22-25 Sept. I'm not sure when she will be in Oshawa, Toronto,  Quebec City but there may be a link on the Navy website. She's...

I have a soft spot (not my brain) for E-O Tech being a former Fire Control Systems technician. We worked first line on the tanks and guns when they were deployed. Lots of different challenges everyday, never boring. I would suggest you watch the video's on the web page and then go to the nearest...

Sorry to hear about your situation. I know that the Public Service is looking to hire lots of people and a civilian career with DND is possible. You might want to look into it if you are serious about serving with the folks in uniform. Civilian employees are critical to getting the mission...

Celticgirl, That's great news. Take your time with the PT and be in the best shape you can be. Good news, last time I checked the bug season in Quebec won't have started when you get to Farnham for your field exercise! Cold is easy to deal with, bugs are just annoying.

CADPAT is treated as a controlled commodity and must be disposed of, something to do with the copyright? or chemical compostion?? The Supply techs out there should know the real answer.

CEOTP is Open selection list for AEC so I would wait the time. I know AEC is still open and there are some CEOTP spots still open (at least in my area). The BMOQ list for 08 Jan 09 are now open so those dates are firm. CFR FCS

Int Op is No longer taking people "off the street". I suggest you ask to work with the Int Section at your unit or at brigade and get some exposure to the trade. It may make the transfer easier. Stay in and make yourself the best candidate for OT. Best of luck.  CFR FCS 

Sorry to burst your bubble. For the fiscal year 08/09 there were NO CEOTP pilot vacancies. There were only 21 for DEO and I'm willing to bet they are all filled. If you ask your CFRC directly they should tell you what the current situation is and that you will have to wait until April 2009 to...

Fracknight, One of the reasons your file has not progressed rapidly is that the DEO process is VERY competitive. Intelligence Officers are selected nationally at a board and there are very few hired each year. MARS have lots of spots but there is an added selection gate you must pass which is...

Check it out on line at: http://www.forces.gc.ca/dgcb/dppd/engraph/dppd_coverpage_e.asp?sidesection=3&sidecat=30&docid=6 Looks like $243 for less than 3 years. CFR FCS

It was JDS Uniphase and DND said it wasn't secure enough for us. The RCMP gladly took it over. Go figure.

The NCM SEP program has recently listed some new colleges that are acceptable, the web page isn't always totally accurate. I strongly advise you get to your nearest CFRC and ask about them. The NCMSEP occupations are Open Selection List (OSL) meaning the Production / Selection Officer at the...

From the Recruiting Webpage Combat Engineer      Overview      Your job is to ensure that friendly troops can live, move and fight on the battlefield, and deny the same abilities to enemy troops. Lots more but also. When necessary, fight as infantry (includes use of personal weapons...

EME Officers, like NCM's wear the issue Metal hatbadge when in DEU. The expensive cloth hat badge is worn with CADPAT. The branch will decide when it is issues to OCdt's. I think after Phase 2 (CAP) but I'm not sure I didn't do CAP. CFR FCS
