This may have been answered in another subject but I don't know what keywords to search for.
I was just recruited as a Reg force Vehicle Tech, my BMQ is March '13. This question is way ahead of what I need to focus on but I'd like to know what goals I can look toward in my career with the CF.
Are there civi or CF courses/training I can do to upgrade my resume while serving? Likewise are there voluntary programs that I can do to upgrade my soldier skills and qualifications?
For example the QL4 [non-optional, right?] OJT, QL5 Journeyman, heavy machinery and Leopard tank specialty programs offered for VTs. In terms of soldier qualifications I'm not sure what they would offer for a tech but French as a second language would be good. Or maybe a weapons or a parachuting certification. My VIR is 5 years so I'm open to ideas so I can make the most of my time.
On a side note. If a VT catches this post let me know if I can PM you a question.
