    RMC Distance Education Courses

    To answer your question, Yes.  Here is an interesting thing to consider, if you want the military to pay for your courses you will need to do an Individual Learning Plan.    I am a RMS Clerk with plans to finish off my BA with RMC. As I pass a course, DND reimburses me my required textbooks and...

    Question about age & joining

    I was 31 when I joined full time and I had no problems.  We had a "50 something" in my reg force recruit course that had no problems keeping up with the rest.  I joined the CF because previously I worked in a bank for 13 years and had enough of it.  It was fun keeping up and passing the 18 year...

    weight loss in BMQ

    Purple Trades: Definition & Trg Discussion

    This would be reserve training.  There is no reg force-element specific NCM training at CFSAL.  For reservist courses that run during the summer it can get separated depending on the trade.

    Air Force's CADPAT name-tag & rank

    For the record, the bird that the Air Force uses as a symbol is an Eagle- it is not an albatross or even a seagull. Ref:  http://www.airforce.forces.gc.ca/traddocs/trada_e.asp I think it's best to stop that part of the discussion and it is not wise to slam a symbol especially when you do not...
