    Re-enlistment into the CF

    Hello, I need a bit more information.  When you were in the Regular Force (Army) what MOSID were you and when you CT'd to the Reserve Force what MOSID did you go to.  With your new employment offer . . . which MOSID? I suspect that if you were hard Army previously as Regular Force and Reserve...

    Comm Research

    I suppose you can ask for a naval uniform but it will depend on the needs of the CAF as to which element you get assigned. Cheers Andraste

    Intelligence Officer / Operator

    Hello, DEO is open for Intelligence Officer but the positions are limited so you could potentially be in a tight competition.  I note that your current degree program would be "acceptable" which means that those applicants for DEO with an "ideal" degree program would score a bit higher on...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    If the occupation you are hoping to apply to is "closed" the BPSO will  let you know before you even start down the interview phase.  At that point you can either opt to apply to another MOSID or wait until it opens. Cheers Andraste

    Education requirements to become an electrical distribution technician

    Hi Teddie, Sorry for the long wait in reply.  A couple of questions: (1) what grade level math do you have?  I note you attended WLU . . . was that as a mature student or did you take math at a higher level beyond Grade 10. If so, what level and what was the content as it might be possible to...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    You could try to contact DMCPG but bear in mind this is their very, very (emphasis on very) busy time of year as they are running boards for multiple programs with VOT being one.  Rest assured the boards are sitting and offers/decisions are slowly being released.  Cheers Andraste

    DEO application to Air Force and Army

    Hartie, Because you chose "Air Force" as your preferred interest, only the Air Force options would come up.  Construction Engineering falls under the Army. You may have to go back and reset your preferences if you want Construction Engineer to show up. WRT to General Officer List these include...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    PTFreak, As you noted the CFAT available online is much easier (indeed it is significantly easier) as it was designed to give potential applicants an understanding of the test structure.  Having a healthy sense of confidence is a great thing going in but do ensure you understand the types of...

    Medical COT from Boatswain to...

    Hello, As this is compulsory OT (medical) you will be meeting the PSO a few times.  The first time you will be presented with a list of MOSIDs for which you meet the CFAT and the entry standards (ES).  From this list you will chose which MOSIDs interest you.  If you do not meet the CFAT for an...

    You'd still be further ahead than those coming on training with an "Arts" degree  :)  Cheers Andraste

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    As Puckchaser note, while your general science degree is not ideal for the Sig O MOSID, the course load in general science degree (e.g., math, physics, chemistry) will help you along as well.  The training in and of itself is progressive and while some with ideal engineering type degrees may...

    Intelligence Officer / Operator

    Good afternoon Econ-Kid, I am certain that either occupation INT OP or Comm Research will keep you mentally challenged on a daily basis but in different ways.  INT OP is more related to intelligence gathering, researching and collating that information up the chain to populate the global CAF...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    For infantry the point where you would no longer be considered for VOT-U would DP 1.2 completed (trained).  If it is not a requirement for Reserve Infantry Officer (which I am not certain) then it could possibly be DP 1.1 as that would be the point where the Reserves consider you fully...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    I am sure you will be fine.  Just contact your recruiter and explain things (if they don't already know) and then rebook a new writing session. Regards Andraste

    Paid Physical Fitness Time?

    For me I guess I would view it no differently than someone who drives their car to work and hits the gym for a leisurely 45 minute stationary bike ride then off the bike and into the showers.  If the member is getting her/his exercise in one form or another the venue (gym or biking from home)...

    Voluntary Occupational Transfer ( VOT )

    Hello Chromenut, Yes, it applies to all CAF members for in-service selection programs.  In some of the officer MOSIDs as in some of NCM MOSIDs there are significant phases of training which can take years to complete before they are considered trained (e.g. ,Pilot or MARS) during which the time...

    Verification of Former Service (VFS) [Merged]

    Good morning.  The requirement to write the CFAT upon enrollment can vary depending on the circumstances.  It is likely since the time you originally wrote in 2009 the cut score for your chosen MOSIDs has changed . . . it does happen from time to time but not yearly.  I suspect that is the...

    Medical Release ( merged )

    Unless you want to get out, I would not jump the shark with a VR but allow the process to play out.  When you are assigned a PCAT that triggers and Admin Review Medical Employment Limitations (ARMEL) at D Med POL.  They will examine your PCAT to determine if you breach Universality of Service. ...
