    While the Project Management Institute has many chapters in all over the world, including Canada, the organization itself is chartered and headquartered in Pennsylvania. As well, the certificate is issued in Pennsylvania. As for the person in my question, what I meant by he got the certificate...

    Proper Use of Post-Nominals

    Hello, Is it appropriate to use a post-nominal from a private organization in a military setting? I know someone who puts his civilian, private certification on his name. The organization is not even located in Canada and I know that he got that certification on his civilian job. Example is...

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    Beg pardon sir, but your information regarding ROTC graduates is incorrect. ROTC graduates are required to serve a number of year as an active duty officer. In the U.S. military if I am not mistaken 'active duty' means working for the military full time. For example Naval Officers graduates from...

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    Thank you for the explanation and pardon me for not understanding the in and out of the CF properly. I was thinking about the U.S. model in responding to this thread. Over there, while there are service academies, there are also ROTC programs in universities. Therefore, a high school graduate...

    ROTP at Civilian University 2004 - 2018 [Merged]

    First of all, if my post below reads a little bit crass, I apologize. It is certainly not meant to be. So suppose my son applies to RMC (via ROTP) and a number of civilian universities. Suppose that he is accepted in the RMC and civilian universities in the same program. For example let us say...

    Asking for my child who is interested in being an engineer: do you do significant amount of design and modelling? If so, what platform do you typically use? As well, how about lab works? Material testing, fatigue testing for example. Lastly, do you get the opportunity to get Professional...

    Naval Combat Dress (NCD) uniform [Merged]

    My question is that how many times does one need to assert that one works with the Naval Forces of Canada? Let us see the jacket. There is the anchor on the name tape, NAVY / MARINE tape with maple leaf in the middle, Naval Ensign (which design includes the Canadian flag) on the shoulder...

    Pay and Benefits as CIC

    I am a CV in my son's Corps and through the CO I am in the process of enrolling as CIC. Once the process is done, I assume I would be commissioned as NCdt. Not that I am enrolling for the money, but what kind of pay and benefits can I expect as a CIC?

    PQ candidate Martine Ouellet: Trudeau's Canada Day video insulted Quebecers

    This statement is based on of the lies Quebec separatists tell themselves, and now they believe it as true. Quebec separatists believe that it is official that Quebec is a nation. However, what happened was that the House issued a motion (which is not legally binding) that "This House recognize...

    Airfield defence role for PRes? (From: "Re-Royalization")

    A bit off topic question. If the RCAF does not have its own ground troops, who provides terminal attack control to a typical Army unit in a CAS situation?

    Reserve Entry Training Plan (RETP) [MERGED]

    Apologies. As I explained in the other thread, I am much more learned on the matters of U.S. Military than Canadian, for a number of reasons. Thank you for the answer.

    Meet the Canada's First Female Combat General - Macleans

    Out of curiosity, why does the article mention BGen Carignan as a 'one-star' general? Is this not a case of Americanization? In the Canadian Army, the stars indicate junior and senior officers (except Majors), I believe. Should she not be 'one-maple-leaf general'?
