Actually heard in a training session today... "so; how does saving money help the company?" enough said.

Mark Thanks for the information.  My doctor is not part of a clinic, but Saint John is not that big and I should be able to get in the same day.  The time frame from having the work done to getting the results is the one area that has me concerned as it is out of my hands.  I intend to request...

It is called a 'commitment' for a reason.  If you are thinking about the 'free education', then you are in for a big surprise. Mil Col is so much more than just classrooms.  Members of the CF are Professionals and if you think that you would just drop out after having your education paid for...

And the good news just keeps on comming.  I have heard from all of my references and they have all been contacted.  Four of the five were via email and the fifth was a phone message.  When my friend called them back, they told him that they did not need him as they had enough from the other...
