    Dental Officer Training Program DOTP

    Trees: After consulting w/ my UPSO and the production staff here your options appear to be: 1)  Go ROTP, serve your min obligatory service period then apply for MMTP. MMTP is the in-service Med O trg plan. Apparently there is no in-service Dental O plan according to the PSO world. ( For ROTP...

    Dental Officer Training Program DOTP

    As far as I am aware, the CF will not subsidise you for both ROTP and DOTP. It is one or the other. I have recently realt with an applicant who wanted the CF to cover ROTP and Med O TP. The answer was no, we ( the CF) will only cover one program. She was informed if she wants MOTP she has to get...

    Reserve

    Offense taken. Then again, maybe not, as you seem to have listened to "many people" instead of those whose job it is to inform you of yoru options. Good drills there. SB

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    Typically, we do not ( and should not )  give the overall CFAT score or score by sections to the Applicant. To be honest, knowing the score in and of itself is not that important. What is more important is the form we ( at my CFRC anyway) give to teh applicant listing all the trades they...

    Offer Being Retracted

    The chap ( or Chapette) who conducted your interview is your MCC. He or she may also wear 2 hats as a recruiter as well. File managers do not conduct interviews and assign MP scores.....

    Offer Being Retracted

    Applicants cannot be merit listed for trades they have not been processed for, this includes the interview. As a military career councillor I cannot interview an applicant for cook but file my formal report as suitable for pilot. The process and our SOP's do not support that. At the very least...

    Offer Being Retracted

    A file manager cannot accept or retract/ refuse an offer made to an applicant. The offer is made to the applicant, not the file manager... typically the applicant is contacted by a Military Career councillor or a file manger and given the offer, as well as the opportunity to accept or refuse it...
