People awaiting training / medical dates will probably be waiting a very very long time. They will need to recall operators laid off first before even thinking of new training classes.

That's true, but from what I know that they didn't laid off anyone yet Am not sure I would like to be optimistic, by increasing the ridership flow they will need more busses and operators to keep social distancing in effect And they know that to put a new trainee on the road it needs a month or may be more , on the other hand as the city starts to reopen, I think by the end of may to mid june 80-90 % of the businesses will be opened They will find themselves in a race with ti.e ro accommodate the demand Just brain storming with wishful thinking Link to post Share on other sites

ttcscarb Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Good news update. As you guys are aware the federal and provincial government has provided covid funding for transit and the ttc is expected to receive a large share of it. at the moment the training has resumed for master signup transfers to retrain for their new modes. from the grape vine I have heard operators who were laid off to be recalled before November and then perhaps new operators to be called up for training.

Jayhyrule Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 I'm in holding pool A and haven't heard anything for about 2 month. Last email they sent was that everything still on hold. I believe all of us in Holding pool A will have to do another medical as it's been over a year since the last medical. Link to post Share on other sites

Depends on your age, your medical is good for up to 5 years. There are still 100+ operators still laid off and not mention 10 to 20 of them haven't completed their 30 days training yet.

Francois006 Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 Hello guys, Just re-done my medical and police records 2 weeks ago. Recruiter emailed me back saying training will resume around new year. Will need to go to the documentation appointment again. Why is is that? Why do I have to go thru all this again.

Probably because of the long break in between the process? Or maybe policies have changed in these past few months? Just be glad you got an email back from them regarding your process.

Why would someone want to try a different mode? Because they can and want to do try something else. This is a really pointless question. And did you have to abbreviate subway to s.way?
