Hi all, trying to get some information on Armour Officer training - how many modules (total), length, location, and some general idea of the content of each.

Any information on any of that would be very useful.

Thanks all!
 
I'm only familiar with Armoured, DEO plan for which you need an academic degree. You start as a second lieutenant (2LT) right away. Usually, it takes two summers to be fully qualified, and become a lieutenant (LT).
1. BMOQ - 30 days. Your local unit
2. BMOQ-A - 55 days. Gagetown? Not sure, it changes.
3. DP1 (2 mods) - 70 days. Gagetown\Borden? Somewhere :)
4. AJSO (3 mods) - 8 days, mostly online, but I could be wrong.
5. CAFJOD Pre-ATOC (3 mods) - 7.5 days, not sure where.

Brilliant, that's exactly what I need. Thanks for that.

BMOQ is, if I understand correctly, possible to do both full time in summer or part time in winter on alternate weekends


Everything else I'm assuming is only full time? (Except the last two online pieces from your list)

so i just got offered and my BMOQ is in February but its for 12 weeks andnits st jean. does that 12 weeks comprise of BMOQ and BMOQ-A

i hot offered armoured officer by the way. thanks a lot for helping us with information
 
IDFs timeline looks like a PRes Armoured O. Since you're RegF, 12 weeks is just BMOQ in StJean. BMOQ-A is later.
