There is a CANFORGEN out that explains that CT's are now done through DGCM on thier site (both inter/intra) as of Feb 1, and no longer through CFRC's.  I am not at a DIN computer so I can't post the CANFORGEN here at the moment.
 
Can anyone copy/paste that CANFORGEN here please? I would like to know if this applies to new applicants only or also to those who have a CT already initiated.
 
I was told this too, but I also don't have access to the DIN so can't get the details. If anyone has the ability, could they please paste the CANFORGEN for us lesser peons?

Is this a good thing?

Time will tell I guess, the message seems to indicate the process will be faster by eliminating the need for a middleman (CFRC's), but until people actually start using it and going though it, its anyones guess.
 
Yeah well, moving it to the CFRCs was supposed to make it faster. We all saw how that worked out....
 
The new form and the email address are available on EMAA under career options. The form seemed simple enough, cotained basic information like name, unit, desired CT type, desired element, it even asks on which date the applicant would like to transfer.

Mine wasn't too bad, although I've heard lots of horror stories about others.  The biggest problem I did notice was when wanting to apply for "remuster-only" trades.  They weren't available for entry level through CFRC and therefore it was a huge hurdle to get across.

Here is the new form, you fill it out save as an email attachment and send to one of the emails at the bottom of the form.



 
It might not save as a .doc but it will open in word if you right click and use the open with function. 
 
Has anyone used this yet, and received atleast an acknowledgement from DMilC?
 
Well the form has been downloaded over 200 times, so there are people out there who are at least thinking about it.  I may still yet CT, (other things on my plate right now), but I am curious as well, the new process has been in "effect" for almost 2 months now, so someone must have some insight :-\
 
Hatchet Man, I get the impression you're working with/at CFRC? I called Toronto and they are mainly "in the dark" about this process. They aren't even sure who the applications are going to, being without any contact information.

For the poster who asked about how the process is going...

He has found the timeline since Feb. to basically be three weeks from the time you apply to when the decision is made.  From here he has found the standard to be - some type of notification in the first few days to first week in the form of a reply to the E-mail provided on the application. At that point eligibility and suitability is determined. (For me, I do know I hold the qualifications for eligibility - some people may not already have their "i"s and "t"s complete.)

For suitability - an interview is usually set up with a CFRC (and perhaps sometimes the Unit) - either DMCARM will direct the CFRC to set it up, or may ask the candidate to call and request a booking. After that final paperwork is completed - it goes back to the people who man the trade in Ottawa and depending on if you are suitable and the numbers allow - you will be given an offer.

I have no clue as to the timeline when found suitable, but there is no position available.
 
Just an update:

I was contacted about my CT this morning, by a clerk from NDHQ. Apparently the new method is being used frequently, and the staff are having trouble keeping up with the amount of files.

Nope I don't have anything to do with recruiting, just an interest in the CT process.
