Yes. One option is to go in as an MP Officer using your degree. Another option would be too join the reserves and leapfrog from there.

Just thought I'd make my post a little less specific...Anyone know of MMA, Ju-Jitsu, boxing, muay thai etc. gyms in Pet or nearby area????

Any word on the latest dates for CPAC/ application due dates etc. Either the provost website hasn't been updated or my internet isnt updating the webpages...

Anything? And not talking about cardio-box or whatever the PSP runs....

I definitely see this point.  My problem is that it would involve taking a week off school. The positive part is that if selected I would just defer my degree to after course/tour...the negative is that if I'm not selected Ill be a week behind. This is why I'm trying to sort out whether my...

I can do the official fitness test in well under 18. By "good start" do you mean I shouldn't bother attending the selection in January? Like are most of the guys selected in the 12 range on a beep test? Thanks for your response though.

I have a question. How would a guy hovering around 10.5 on the beep test do on the selection. Is this a sufficient level for the amount of cardiovascular demand during selection?

Yes, thats what I thought.  I applied for ROTP like 4 years ago and thats what I was told. Ended up going to the reserves but im thinking about going back for the ROTP and from all the answers at recruiting the dates are different. Thats why all this is so confusing.

QR&O's

Thank you for your response supersonic, thats pretty much what I was asking in the first place.

The contract I was referring to, infantry officer is 13 years for ROTP and 9 for DEO. Anyways: "Also, you ARE obliged to complete 13 (or whatever) years of service." I don't agree, if that was the case then why would the  subsidized/payback time be termed obligatory service in the QR&O's. ...

A clear sentence would read: Upon successful completion of their undergraduate studies, ROTP Officer Cadets are awarded a university degree and granted a commission as officers in the Canadian Forces. Graduates of the ROTP are under contract for 13 years including the time to complete the...

Yeah thats what I figured. Its misleading though to say 4-5 years, when it is really a nine year contract.  For a non career soldier getting out in your mid to early thirties is very unreasonable. Especially when you need to find a new career. I notice in the states the ROTC only requires 4 years.

Ok, but after the five years and I apply for release is that considered dishonorable or does releasing before contract have any negative connotations as far as applying for future career in policing?

Ok recruitors via chat today told me the contract was 9 years but i could voluntary release before that.... But on the RMC website it says Upon successful completion of their undergraduate studies, ROTP Officer Cadets are awarded a university degree and granted a commission as officers in the...

I see, I just wouldn't want to put in for a CT without knowing the answer to these questions. And I have tried recruiting. They sort of "bypass" the question...

If im reading this thread right, the contract for an infantry officer under the ROTP is 13 years? So basically 13 - 4=9 years actual service. The other 4 being university and summers? Ive read the general rule of thumb for contracts is 2 years times years subsidized. (4yrs degree*2=8...i guess...

http://news.gc.ca/web/view/en/index.jsp?articleid=393179 Hopefully this is in the right forum. Anyways my question is, how does this affect part time workers. For example I work part time for the city...does this amendment to the bill protect my job when I require weekends off for exercises...

In grade 12 my ex girlfriend managed to convince me to back out of my Infantry ROTP, BUT i thought ahead and told them to hold onto my file.... A year later I had snapped to reality and found myself on BMQ but as NCM reserve.  Point is, they held onto my file without consequence.  I didnt...

By that I think they mean credentials to teach the course. The guy who taught me mine was a certified driving instructor civvie side. Could be wrong though about the meaning.
