That's the thing, I have exceeded the three month limit by three years to be honest, but I wasn't made aware of this particular policy until recently (early Apr). The CCMS said that wouldn't be too much of an issue though given my particular circumstances.

Thanks for your input. I did speak to CCMS. I had a formal meeting with them initially and then exchanged emails related to my grievance. They have been really supportive and believe that I have a reasonable case. What I mean by this is I'm able to reference a policy and have outlined the 5Ws...

Okay, thanks guys. I do realize it wasn't much to go on, but I do not want to disclose too much at this time.

Hello, I will be submitting a grievance soon, but I wanted to ask some of the more experience members on here what the likelihood of it being successful is, without giving away too many details. If you’re able to quote a policy that supports your grievance, how likely is it that it will be...

The new Infantry Officer course is IPCP (11 months). I was wondering if anyone knows the attrition rate of this course (I believe it was introduced three years ago). Additionally, what happens to a member if they fail the course, considering as there is only one serial per year they can’t get...

What furniture said above pertains to the question I asked, except they worded it more eloquently.

Noted My bad, these particular members are not OFP and belong to a specific unit which requires it's members to shave. Additionally, some religions require members to let their hair/beards grow longer than what the CAF regulations are which I assume is an additional purpose for the...

Good day everyone, I just have a general question with regards to DAOD 5516-3, Religious or Spiritual Accommodation. There is a grey area within this DAOD which I can't seem to figure out. If someone requests for a specific accommodation under DAOD 5516-3 are they able to maintain practicing...

https://cpgear.com/collections/operational-badges/products/dfs-machine-gunner-badge Does anyone know the specifics of this qualification badge? I’m wondering what course people take to get it or if there’s a CANFORGEN out there on it.

Roger, thank you. I suspect Inf O to Int O will be the ‘red to green’ scenario.

I was wondering if i could get some insight on how lengthy the process is of VOT’ing from Inf O to Int O. Specially, what does the whole “trades being red or green mean”. Does red mean they need more people?

I've had a quick read through the postings in this thread and there's been some interesting points that I've observed from both sides of the fence here. I'm more inclined to side with the non-name changing camp. However, after doing some self reflection of my own I understand why there is a need...

I really hope RMC does this because I really do not want to have to do distance learning full time again. It sucks so bad.

Can’t see why not. Like you said it doesn’t specify what nationality your character reference can be, so go with it.  It would would be stupid if your reference had to be a specific nationality, imo.

No, wait it out. Selections are still going on.
