TTC123 Report post Posted October 9 They would want people trained as back ups incase the need arises. Ex. Retirements, transfers, medical leaves etc... although like I said it’s not guaranteed they could train in wheel trans and be fortunate enough to stay there.

Jayhyrule Report post Posted October 10 Hi all, first time poster. Was reffered here from a friend and boy do I wish I saw this while in the early process. Anyways my timeline is I did the info session/interview/offer on June 17, Medical on July 2, Police Clearance July 19. I got my copy of the medical clearning me but didn't send them as that was not part of the instructions. I only sent the police clearance. Its almost mid Oct and was wondering about documentation. I still haven't got an email for documentation. I don't want to email my recruiter right away and was wondering if anyone with a similar time line got their email for documentation yet? Also, while doing my medical, I tested high on the grip test. They said this month I was top. Does this move me towards a certain mode? Thanks again all.

Thanks for this i don't see anyone here how had an offer after June, so I was wondering if theres anyone left here who hasnt received their email for documentation yet? According to an email I received shortly after the offer they said documentation would be 3-4 months but still havent heard back. Happy Thanksgiving all!

haks810 Report post Posted October 15 Hi Guys, I just got my training date for October 28th but I was wondering what would happen if I postponed this one and wait for another training date. Is it possible that you would get a different more or a division? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it possible that you would get a different more or a division? Yes, if you postpone it you will be taken out of the queue and the possibility of a different division and mode is high, also a reminder you may be waiting longer for a new training date due to not many classes being instructed.

haks810 Report post Posted Tuesday at 11:18 PM Turns out that October 28th is the last training date of the year. They will resume in 2020 oh well I guess I’ll have to wait a bit longer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
