So, I've re applied to the CAF, first time around, I was told that they don't accept applications until the first week of april or just before, so when I dropped it off on april 2nd, I got the look of "what is wrong with you, we're done hiring for the year" anyways, my file manager went on holidays, passed my file to another manager, it got misplaced, by the time I got merit listed, there were 4 positions left for my trade, and needless to say, I didn't make it through, come the next year I decided not to apply...
Anyways, i'm now in a situation where i've re-applied, I sent it in the online application today. My first choice for trade was AVN tech, and second was ACS tech, I understand that I have to do the 13 weeks BMQ, then a year or so of trade training in CFB Borden. I know that depending on the length of time between the two sets of training, I can either find alternate courses to take, do OTJ, or just kill time in Borden, but what I'm curious about is if the trade courses have a schedule for when they start, so that I can have an idea as to how long the gap will be between the taining courses.
Does anyone know how this works? Is it run when there is enough people ready to take it, or is it run when the calendar says it gets run or what's the deal?
