No I have certainly not given up. I know I would have issues balancing life/work in the civy world. I do want to find a way to make it work, and if money wasn't an issue I would simply hire someone to look after my children while I was away. My CoC is aware of my situation. I have had...

I am aware that there are single parents in the military. I honestly don't know how they do it? I  do not see how I can do my Job (I am a sailor) and take care of my children. My nearest family is 4 hours away and cannot offer me any help. What would I do with my children if I need to go to sea...

Does parental Leave work that way. My stepchild has lived with me for 10 years and still lives with me now. Her Mother recently passed away and at this time I have no Legal Custody. I am trying to get her Biological father to sign custody to me. If he does sign, would I be entitled to Parental...

I've been looking into this, and I am going to talk to someone at my personnel selection office about it. But I was wondering if there is currently a path that an NCM could take that would provide the required training to go from an NCM to a Medical officer.. I am aware of the UTPNCM, CEOTP, and...

Hello again. I just wanted to post an update in case anyone is interested. My College credits were recognized and I got accepted into 2 universities. My unit lost my application for a little while though. Eventually it got found in someones desk.. Phew.. anyone else applying should make a copy...

In case anyone is interested. I did find a University that will recognize my college education and I am now able to meed the 2 credit requirement. I  have a meeting with the BPSO next week, if anyone is interested I'll post another update. Thank you all again for your input. Moxo

Wow. I'm not even sure how to respond to that.. why would you come in here and hate on someone who's only striving for self improvement. The question of whether or not I have any "strength or even remote interest" leadership will surely be addressed during the UTPNCM application/selection ...

Thank you for the links. I browsed both sights and sent emails off to each.

After seeing a few of my peers off to the UTPNCM Program, I'm wanting to go this route myself.. I've always wanted to go to university and get a degree in computer science. The problem is don't have the required 2 university credits. I have 2 college diplomas from back in 2002. I have sent off...

Thank you all for your input. The situation still hasn't been resolved. I have been pushing the issue and am going to request to sell my accumulated leave. The staff is still insisting that we can be forced to take accumulated leave. I have asked to see where that rule is written and am still...

I am on a QL5 course 18 months in duration. on a Canadian forces base I don't think that it qualifies as a Canadian Military College. I am not sure who is authorizing the leave I only know what I have already stated. There are a few of us in the same boat. There is a PO2 who is trying to...

Thanks for  the references. And i agree that Google is my friend that is how I found this site. I've read through the refs. It doesn't seem say they can force me to take my accumulated leave. But it also doesn't say they can't. Which is my problem. It has come down from my CO that I will use my...

      I am a LS and find myself in situation that just doesn't seem right. I am on a course which will break for 2 weeks in February. I have been told that i will have to use my accumulated leave in combination with my remaining annual leave to take that time off. Also that i could not come in...
