Challenges
Sig Ops, LCIS Techs and Linemen all have their own identies and espirt de corps. I think ACISS is a bigger deal to the LCIS and Linemen.
For the Sig Op not that much of a change. A chance for those that like the IS world to move into IST. For me I am going to be ACISS Core...
********I have to agree with PC...some nameless big head who deigns to grace us with his presence for a quick one way conversation does not win my respect either. This is a forum and all topics are open for debate...just because we come here to vent (something we wouldn't have to do if the...
For sure there will be a transition period - but it won't be 10 years. For most qualified QL3 pers now they will get onto a legacy QL5. For those Sig Ops that don't there is hardly any change in the TP. For the Linmen and LCIS guys that miss out on the last few QL5's yes they may have to do...
What I mean as misinformation is that there are posters on here throwing around their opinion based on assumption, attitude and no knowledge of the facts. IE reserve training will be two summers in DP1 and the ACISS course is 70 days, etc. Although that may not be their fault, the chain of...
ACISS Op
I'm not a tech but it is my understanding that there still will be a POET but it has a new name. Also the COAs being looked at is if to have POET before or after DP1.
Just so there is no misuderstanding CFSCE does not control ACISS. ACISS is part of the MES project in some directorite in Ottawa. What CFSCE is in control of is the training part of ACISS Dp1, 1.1, 2. 2.1, 3, etc.
What the field force will be receiving from CFSCE in the DP1 Qual Pte is...
REF Reserve Training
DP1 will be one summer only for the reserves IIRC about 49 training days. Some training will be done before hand by DL or at the unit level. The TP is slightly different from the Regular Force. For example the Reserve Comms don't have the SAM/SAS equipment like the...
That's why I decided to post - alot of misinformation, misunderstanding and misconception on this thread. You are right that the chain-of-command should of done a better job with the passing of information and keeping the troops updated. Call it fear of the unknown.
For the new pers coming in...
If you are a linemen now, you may still get to do a Linemen QL5 depending on how long you been in and where you are in your career.
The common ACISS DP2 now is based on a Signals Detachment. However remember there is a DP2.1. So a LST that comes off the common DP2 (he/she already had Core...
******As for the PAT idea. That has the potential to be another train wreck in the making. We're going to send a bunch of troops to units to get OJT when we can't even employ them because they lack certain qualifications. Why does that strike me as the Branch or CFSCE shifting the problem out...
I'm a SNR NCM at CFSCE and have been involed with the planning for the training of ACISS. It's my job to make it work, I want to make it work and believe it will work. I'll either find a way or make one.
Your first point, all new organiziations, formations, units have growing pains, so will ACISS but that will pass.
Your second point, the Comm Research Trade is a purple trade with Navy pers. The C&E Branch has members from all three services.
Your third point, most LCIS techs I know love...
Point 3, PAT Troop at CFSCE may soon be getting smaller.
Future plan in new year if approved - PATS posted to their units on OJT. The unit loads them on SQ, Driver Training, etc. Then they come back to CFSCE for their trade training.
Point 1: DP1 is 75 Training Days
Point 2: LST, CST, IST and CISTM are sub Ocps, everybody (Line, Sig Op and LCIS) will be ACISS. After the common DP1, if you are either ACISS Core or move into DP1.1 for LST, CST and IST. However all do DP2. After that there is a DP2.1 for ACISS Core, LST...
