If its the one held at the CFMWC here in Halifax I will inquire about the pre-requisites and get back to you.

I don't think you do it until you're a senior AESOp. When I did the basic course last fall, I was on course with an MWO AESOp from Greenwood. It's a requirement for officers since we need it as well as the MW Standard course to be Crew Commanders, but for you guys I don't think it's an immediate requirement, more of a nice to have. I'll ask a few of the AESOps today.

Took the course in 2003.
Thought it was outstanding course as it had lecturers from different countries talking about the different disciplines of maritime warfare along with experience. (ie UK-Falklands, US- Strait of Hormuz etc.)
It also had the different agencies and what they contribute to the maritime world (SIGINT etc).
Everybody, says its a nice to have and I agree. The synidicate work was a blast.
The boys in blue from my syndicate discovered a Halifax treasure called the "Lower Deck". Big yawns.and water bottles were the norm.

Go see an AESOP/NESOP (Trinty, Athena, Fleet School) and ask them for a copy of Math 183 Book
(Sige 1018). If you can do this math package, you will be a successful in your studies.
This qual will also open up more postings in the future.

Hey thanks for the tip NCRCrow, I am actually at Athena right now with a bunch of NESOPS and SIG guys, the BPSO also gave me the AESOp PIP with a whack of math stuff on CD, I had to write a test at the BPSO when I applied and from what I hear you complete basically that same CD that I have before your course starts. Math was never my strongest selling point so I have been looking into it quite a bit. I am definitely going to see what that Math 183 book is all about.

Challenge the math test, prior to going to Winnipeg.
It will give u the confidence needed and also open lots more doors in the future.
Ask around for a BEW Pack V4 03.01.2004, the course is distance learning and an excellent start to your AESOP overall knowledge.(radar theory, propagation, ESM) (or 5 day instructor lead)
This will show outstanding initiative and preparation for your upcoming academic year.
Get yourself a good scientific calculator (Sharp)with 2nd Function and Hex, Dec etc.
See if u can go up Island for a flight (if u havent already done so)
Just some suggestions...Good Luck

My advice to you reference the above is not to go too in depht. Forget the BEW book as it will only serve to confuse you. You will more than likely have to come here to CFSAS to do the BEW course anyways. You will also cover alot of this stuff when you come to CFANS for your BAC. Get good at grade 12 math ( algebra, graphs, trig and logs) and you will do fine.
