zorro said:As I said, training for some phases is being offered based on priority. Eg., situation with my co-worker who is deploying next year with MSS. He has no LOG phase and is currently in Borden doing his phase 4. Why is he doing phase 4 now? Not because he's caught in the middle, because its the only course they could fit him into and he needs to be phase trained up to phase 4 to be deployed.
It seems our two definitions of "huge" and "backlog" are very different, because I stand by what I just said.
My information comes from a LCol, not a CM, but suffice to say a credible source.
Well, ya, of course they stuck him on a course if he needed it right away. But Log O courses right now are NOT being offered on a 'priority basis' as you previously claimed. The reason many people in your position aren't going on Phase III and such for the time being is because they are implementing the new system. I guess I should have clarified, my info comes from my CM (in regards to the plans for people caught in the middle of the trg change) and from other people in the log world (with regards to your incorrect claims of course being given on a 'priority basis').
My info is correct, you can be assured of that.
