    CMA accreditation??

    From what I was told, if you received your job offer prior to the school being taken off the list you should be fine.  If you got your call and all the appropriate paper work was done already they were not gonna take back an offer, just not enroll any new candidates.  If you are at all...

    CMA accreditation??

    PM inbound. That's very good news, it means steps in the right direction.  Slow progress is still progress and hopefully there are more to follow soon.

    CMA accreditation??

    Not that particular article, but I have heard of them trying to do this for a while now.  And that's exactly what I'm talking about, hopefully this will all work out and benefit us all in the long run.  P.S. mariomike, you continue to amaze me with all the articles and links you provide in...

    Should Leaders Ever Swear?

    I'm of the mindstate that there is a time and a place for everything.  If it is the right time and place; drop your f-bombs, flip the bird, etc.  And moderation is key.  If a well placed f*ck helps illustrate your passion or resolve, then I'm for it.  But if you're just using it because its...

    CMA accreditation??

    I don't think that was directed at me (or my previous posts) but I don't blame the CF for any of this.  I'll admit it is very frustrating (because it is completely out of our hands) and was extremely unexpected (because I was referred there by my RC) but was just bad luck it happened when it...

    CMA accreditation??

    No, just Ontario.  But from what was explained to me, the CMA issue is county wide, many of the PCP/EMT programs lost their accreditation in other provinces as well so I'd imagine there is a similar situation in other areas as well.  For my situation personally, I'm not really able to go...

    CMA accreditation??

    That was one option I explored when I first heard the news, so I called both Cambrian and Durham and both said the programs were not only full, but also had full waiting lists.  This means that even if everyone enrolled in the course were to back out before the start date, there are enough...

    23 Jun 10: Report of Earthquake in ON, QC

    Felt it here in oakville, was not as bad as the msm is making it seem (every story on right now is somehow related to the quake).  I was in the Philippines back in '97 and went through a 6+ magnitude quake, now that shook me up (pun fully intended).

    CMA accreditation??

    Yes, I was one of the unlucky few to have been merit listed only to be taken off because the school I was accepted to was taken off the list suddenly.  Both the school (CTS) and my recruiter have told me they are being reviewed by the CMA to get their accreditation back and if/when that happens...

    Your Beer Brand of Choice

    One of my friends is a navy-guy and he was mentioning to me that they have (IIRC) $1 beers on board the ships, so naturally this thread made me wonder as to what brand(s) are available in the vending machines? Any sailors that would like to shed some light on this?

    The Pacific - New HBO Series

    Ah, I watched 9 & 10 together on VOD so maybe the 'too-much violence' and none-at-all balanced each other well. What I liked about part 10 was the closure of all the characters at the end.  It's nice to see how their lives played out once they were home.  One thing I found odd was how Snafu...

    The Pacific - New HBO Series

    I just finished off the series last night, and I'm with some of the other posters on here: it's no band of brothers (if you're comparing the two) but on its own, it's a very well done series.  Although it has its flaws (like big gaps in the war, 'not as good' character development, etc) it was...

    CMA accreditation??

    I know for a fact that CTS is is CMA registered.  However the only reason you cannot go there for the SEP is simply because it was recently taken off the CF's list of approved colleges (all but Durham and Cambrian).  I spoke to the PCP program coordinator during my selection interview into the...

    CMA accreditation??

    That is an option, but unfortunately for myself I am not in a position financially to be able to do this.  I've been weighing my options since I got that call and am still undecided on picking a new trade, waiting until (if) an unskilled spot opens up, wait until Sept. 2011 to try and get into...
