Hi, I posted this in the French forums but I'll ask this here since it's the official forums. Sorry for the poor grammar, i'm not 100% bilingual.
Anyway, i've got questions regarding the 642 trade. With school and work taking all my time, I don't really have the oppurtinity to go to the recruiting office.
I'm 20 from québec city and currently in college studying to become a construction electrician. I've always been interested with the army
so i'm pretty sure i'll make the move when i'll get my diploma. I'm a person who likes building stuff or I get bored. I really like the electrical trade so
why not join the army and choose the 642 trade. This brings me to all my questions :
- With my diploma, can I skip some parts of the ql3 course?
- When my training will be done, I will be assigned to what kind of unit? The engineers? is it the same as the combat engineers?
- I would like to stay in québec for the first few years beacause i'm not 100% bilingual and my girlfriend is still in school, is there any ED techs in Valcartier or in the surroundings?
- What is a typical day for an Ed tech on base? Is there alot to do? What to we do when they are downtimes?
- Is there moments in is career that the ED tech can be asked to do stuff that combat trades do or they ONLY work as electricians?
- While on missions, do they only install and maintain the current base or can they be asked to go work on projects outside the base?
- I'll have my diploma next may, will there be alot of oppenings for that trade? If not, is it possible to join another trade like the combat engineers and be on stand by to swith to the
other trade when there's a spot vacant?
Thanks alot for your time!
