'DCE002 Introduction to Military Law' seems to be useful since knowing for sure what not to do to stay out of trouble would be helpful. As for 'DCE001 Introduction to Defence Management' and 'HIE208 Canadian Military History', I don't know what to make of it but the more you know, the better...

I have been taken off the May course too. I guess the upside to this is I'll have more time to get in better shape. Good luck to the sixteen that are going this May.  :)

I had my swear-in ceremony today and I'm still a go for May 5th.  I was so excited and nervous. So much so that I forgot to ask what I said I would do a week ago. It was not until I got home from the ceremony and got a call from my file manager telling me that I'm entitled for the Eng O...

There is no hang-up and I am already aware of the Search Function and have used it before. We were just having a discussion about why js25, who's also entering as a SIGS DEO, is not getting a bonus as compared to the other SIGS DEO that are on the same course date. Which led to the suggestion...

I’m not sure why you’re rolling your eyes at me indicated by the smiley, but if it’s because you think I was showing off or something like that, that’s not the case at all. There are copious amounts of people that have done far better and greater things than I have and I know it’s nothing...

I have a B.E. and a B.Sc. (Comp. Sci.) and no word yet about if I would get a signing bonus. But then again, I've been offered the CELE trade with an initial contract of six years so it may have something to do with the trade and length of contract. I'll ask about it when I swear in next week...

If that's true, I should inquire about that when I swear in since a signing bonus has yet to be discussed with me. Thanks for the info.

And this fall is when you'll be applying those maths. You'll be using it so much that you'll be able to do them in your sleep! Which is why I do recommend that you brush up on the maths for this fall. You will need it. :)

Although it's a good thing to plan for your future, don't dwell too much into it right now. Two years will go by fast, especially as an undergrad, but you will also face plenty of challenges and obstacles along the way. Your third year is coming up and in my opinion it's the most difficult year...

Name: Paul Trade: CELE Age: 24 years I got a call today getting the job offer. I'll be swearing in near the end of March, no official date yet, but I'll be heading out to St. Jean to start on May 5th. I'm looking forward to the challenge and meeting you all. I'm so excited! Edit: Oh just...

I'm CELE DEO applicant here too. I applied in early August, 2007 and did the CFAT, interview, and medical the same month. I was then merit listed in late November of 2007. I've been waiting for a job offer ever since. For now I'm just trying to hang in there and do everything I can to make ends...

There's a signing bonus for Engineering Officers? I've searched around but never found any official mention of this. A signing bonus for Medical Officers is mentioned on the recruiting site, but I found none for engineers. Is it because it's discontinued and was available in the past? I'm being...

Judging from the replies in this thread, I presume that one can use engineering experience in the military to be used towards the P. Eng. designation. But I was wondering though, would I have to transfer/apply to the provincial association where I'm being trained at? I've applied for the AERE...
