    That very well may be, however when the LCIS Tech QL3 was developed, they did not run it through the ADE process properly. The result was that all of the knowledge that would have been passed along on a QL5A course was actually already included in the QL3; thus the reason why the course was so...

    The QL5A Exemption Waiver states in para 5 that if they meet the criteria, they will be granted the Journeyman (QL5A) qualification (AIXP). That said, they will have the course code added to their MPRR, so there is no need to PLAR.

    This particular problem exists for a number of reasons. From what I have been able to ascertain thus far, nobody that I have heard of above the rank of Sgt has had any Spec Pay back-Pay action taken (myself included). In 'My" case, I was a Rad Tech, and had to COT to LCIS Tech in 1996. I did...

    Those "specific LCIS Techs" that were affected were granted a Waiver, since a QL5A course did not exist at that time. Make sure that a copy of the waiver is on your PERS File.

    No need to be concerned about sounding rude. Yes, this is word of mouth, but it is word of mouth from those who DO know. You can blame them sending the files back to Treasury Board for further review on a certain Sigs Colonel who wanted "all or nothing" (again, no names, no pack drill...)

    Spec Pay is/was approved by Treasury Board for the CST Sub-Occ, is being held back until the appeal for IST, LST, and Core can be completed.

    What would you do?

    It is/will be/would be in your best interest to look at a Brigade Posting, if you have managed to dodge that particular bullet up until this point. While Garrison experience is great for developing technical skill-sets, a Brigade position with give you the opportunity to not only work on that...

    Correct: The forecast is 16 new WOs and 16 new Sgts, and 35 new MCpl in the CST sub-occ

    The CISTM Sub-occ is not "gone", but the determination was that it will take upwards of 15 years + to build an ACISS trained person to be able to be an "all-singing, all-dancing" CISTM that can go into "any job" at the CISTM level. Therefore, while the CISTM sub-occ will continue as a sub-occ...

    I am going to weigh in here, since there appears to be a lot of inaccurate and misleading info floating around on this and other threads. First and foremost: This IS happening. on 1 Jan 2011 all Linemen, Sig Ops and LCIS Techs will become part of the ACISS Trade (ARMY Communications and...

    You know......I have to agree with that statement to a limited extent. The reason I say "limited" is that I LOVE my job, I LOVE my country, and I am PROUD to serve my country in what is one of the most honorable professions that has ever existed: The profession of Arms. That said, because of...

    Places to stay for cheap (ie stadacona)?

    Juno Tower in Halifax is even better. Think Yukon Lodge in Trenton. It is considerably more expensive than the rooms that you mention, but also considerably less expensive than a Halifax Hotel, and far nicer than A Block. A word of caution though: They are exceedingly cheap with the towels, so...

    So, today I had the opportunity to hear the most incredulous, unbelievable, mind-boggling comment I have ever heard from a Reviewing Officer in all of my 23 years of wearing this uniform, and I am curious about what you on this forum make of the comment.

    GG to Unveil CAN VC This Week

    I remember when the VC was returned to the List of Canadian Honors and Awards. At that time, it was stated quite prominently that a "quantity" of Bronze had been acquired from the British for the casting of the Medals. It would be interesting to know where exactly the supply is located, but rest...
