Once you get into your trade and you decide that you would not so much like what you are doing is there the opportunity to change trades while already half way trained or would you have to stick with that trade for you first three year contrat?

I'm not in this situation or anything just a question i don't have a answer too.

Thx.

For example : someone was going in as a cook and decides to be infantry?

Thanks Shelldrake,

So does this mean that you can or cannot switch trades? What if a person was in BMQ for example and they decided that they would like to be in a different trade. Can you tell a counsellor and would they help you with this?
I am just researching every angle.

Would they on;y have to have the right aptitude or would they have to stay in that trade. I do know that they are quite helpful I am just wondering if this would be allowed or accepted?

I am waiting right know on my paper work to go through I'm just interested?
 
Thank you Sbale for your Help and thx again to you Shelldrake!
