    I miss my Small Pack

    Maybe have a look at MEC, they have some really good gear, a bit pricey but imo worth it most of the time. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    If I get a chance on Monday, I will post the list of preferred and acceptable degress from the MOSID entry standards for Log O. Its a bit different based on entry plans. The will at least remove some confusion. Sent from my SM-G950W using Tapatalk

    NCM to Officer ( merged )

    Firstly you'd have to be a substantive Cpl before you can apply for UTPNCM. So you'd have some time to show some Leadership qualities. Second, if you do finish your degree while still an NCM you can apply through the special commissioning plan. It does take some time but the experience you...

    Yup exactly. Once passed, you bring in proof and you are paid out in a regular claim. Easiest way to word it is advancing education to make them better in their current trade and for the eventual advancement to "insert officer trade here". Just make it sound good. The ilp page also has some...

    Ive got a few folks set up with ILPs Its a pretty simple online form, the only part that requires a bit of thought is the justification write up portion. Word it so the education benefits the CAF. After that tuition and book fees are paid out once the course is passed. Queen's University has...

    University Training Plan NCM (UTPNCM) 2005 - 2018 [Merged]

    Agreed, I would talk with your PSO first about your overall score for the competition and see how you can improve it. I dont think a CFAT rewrite is the way to go if you are in the 92% percentile for officers...and if you score lower, that will be  the score you are stuck with like was...

    University Training Plan NCM (UTPNCM) 2005 - 2018 [Merged]

    I hear you. The year I was selected, I didnt get the offer until June. I had already decided that I was not selected and started getting other courses lined up for distance education in the fall. Needless to say the rest happened very fast and furious. As well, posting messages should be out...

    Travel on weekend leave

    Borden....yup that about says it all :) So many loopholes that could have been used especially if they are a Private who doesnt know how to look up policy. To be honest, everything is a swipe card now anyway....why not just go with a "pay as you use" card and axe the rations reason all...

    Travel on weekend leave

    Kind of relevant. If the person was on course then they are likely living in quarters  and eating at the mess. In which case that would fall under the Rations rule in the leave manual as the rations are continouous even if it is only for a short duration. And CFTPO/TD should not matter as...

    So this may or may not help your decision. The UTPNCM program is only open to Reg Force pers anyway so you wouldn't be able to apply. If you decided to CT and do the ROTP program, since you are already attending university, it would be very likely that that would be where you stay. In saying...
