Hi guys, I would like to thank anyone in advance who helps me out with my current predicament with any applicable information. I was in 1RCR for 6 years before I got out in 2010 to go to college, I took my PCP course in Ontario and then moved to Newfoundland to practice as a PCP, I currently want to advance in my career but my only options for my ACP course is to go out of the province at the moment and with two children and a nurse wife at home I would prefer to stay as local as possible. I was looking into possibly becoming a med tech in the reserves but there seems to be a lack of information on med techs in the reserves on the Canadian Forces webite.
My main questions are if I were to join the reserves as a med tech; what are the applicable EMS courses that are available to me in the future, I was a corporal 3 when I left the reg force, does anyone have a guess at what if any rank I would keep if I joined the reserves, I did the old battle school format course would I have to complete SQ or whatever they call the newer form of recruit training nowadays.
Any information would be greatly appreciated, my current qualifications that I believe are still applicable to military medicine are my PCP course, IV therapy, TCCC and I also have Neonatal Resuscitation, but I don't know if that is recognized by the CF at all.
P.S. would my reg force courses still be recognized after I haven't been in the military for 2-3 years, mainly my recce, mountain ops, sigs courses etc.
