Greetings - I have asked the recruiters, local units in Ottawa, and searched threads...and I still do not see an answer to this question, so I hope someone out there with recent or current training data.base access can help me out.
I am in the Ottawa/Eastern Ontario area, in the final stages of coming on as a DEO Infantry Officer. For work purposes I need to have a general idea of when some of the training blocks fall as I am using some of my vacation blocks to ensure potential dates are reserved. [I can always cancel vacation if the CF training dates change.]
1. I know that BMQ/BMOQ is offered on weekends in the academic year, but does anyone know if there is one scheduled to start in January 2011? [And if so when does it run till?]
2. My understanding is that there is also a second part of BMOQ where it is just the officers (OEIP2) and that is generally a 2 week type in residence course. If that is the case, does anyone know when that is usually offered? [And my that I mean both the full-time summer Reserve BMOQ and the leadership portion.]
3. I know CAP and Dismounted Platoon Commander qualifications come next. Does anyone know if there is a fall CAP scheduled for 2011 yet, or when the usual time frame is if offered in the fall?
I know that it may still be early for schedules to be posted or confirmed, but my assumption is that for efficiency and planning purposes many of the courses will follow a relatively predictable cycle in terms of what months they are offered. So even last years schedule may be of assistance.
And finally if there is somewhere else I could have searched please advise. The unit had some information but I am up against a deadline and so am trying to be thorough in trying to figure this out while I wait to hear back from them. Thanks in advance. This forum has been a great source of information.
