Is there anywhere that i could find more info on the Winter Warfare courses?

 

[aesop081]

You have 2 courses on there from CFSAL that are not controlled by the army, i assume that was the original intent ?

 

[Michael OLeary]

They were in the original document, the courses are Army responsibility for management of content, but conducted by CFSAL.

 

[Jagd]

And the winter warfare course question should be it's own topic.

You mean i should start a whole new thread on getting info on winter warfare courses?

Actually, in this case it might help. Some who could address the topic may not have seen the question because they aren't following the "course list" thread.

And then a mod can sanitize this thread of all non-applicable content.

How does it work with getting into a specific course??

In the reserve you fill out a course request form, don't know how it works in the reg force.

Military Trials Management  NCM  Common  LFTEU

And what does LFTEU mean?

What is the course Miltary Tandem Master about?

 

[Centurian1985]

I was going to add that there is also a targeting course in the Uk open to officers and NCM, but are you restricting the list to only courses controlled by the Army?

 

[Michael OLeary]

The list in the original post was the list of course controlled by the Canadian Army at the time it was posted.  It has not been amended for any changes since then.  It does not include all possible courses a soldier or officer might attend in their career.

Michael,

Do you have the DIN link for the courses?  I'm assuming a memo through the chain of command is how one would get onto the mentioned courses?

Thanks,

Shaun

What you see is what I had.  Any further details on specific cources would be published by the designated Centre of Excellence.

I am going to try and add the link to the 06/07 and 07/08 Army National Individual Trg calendars.  These list the courses that are planned by the Army for those respective years.

This is the CTC Gagetown Website for those calendars.  Other courses conducted by CFSTG are found here:

For certain career courses - your career manager would load you and for others a memo through the chain of command will do.  Keep in mind that you have to be realistic in your expectations of what course you can get on.  The next few years will see limited posns available on Basic Para courses for example due to the standup of the Spec Ops Regt and the need to reconstitute jump capability back into 3 RCR.

Do you guys know about Air Force course(s) as well?
Especially Met Tech.

 

[George Wallace]

Usually us Combats Arms types aren't going to find out much about Air Force Courses.

 

[plattypuss]

If you can get on the Army News website they have a feature on the Met Tech trade. Link below for the DIN.
