Re: Anyone in YEG get a call for upcoming training yet?
I ended up declining the FSS offer. Not that it wouldn't be an interesting job, but some of the places that one would likely have to live for the first 5-7 years would be pretty unpleasant for someone of my age and family situation. Good career, not worth risking my marriage for though! It sounds li...

Re: Applying at NavCanada: Am I missing anything?
To answer your first question.... just apply and worry about everything else later. What good would it do to worry about planning how you will handle training, a move, etc, if you don't even make it past the assessment tests? You can't do much to prepare for those except come into the session well r...

Re: Application Process Samples
The employee referral program seems really unfair to me Yes, it does seem very unfair to those of us off the street. However, they have to do something to increase the suitability of applicants, since the ATC courses have a sub-50% success rate. Since no one in the world has obviously found a consi...

Re: Anyone in YEG get a call for upcoming training yet?
well its something i guess, I told them I would not be willing to do FSS as it is too remote (most likely) for my wife's career....VFR I will make work, IFR is ideal.....havnt heard anything yet though, im starting to get discouraged, I feel like all my friends are invited to a big birthday party a...

Re: Anyone in YEG get a call for upcoming training yet?
I got a call this morning offering me FSS. The classroom segment would be in the Surrey ACC, but the assignment would be in the Edmonton FIR. It *really* isn't my preferred option, but I'll talk it over with my wife...

Re: Anyone in YEG get a call for upcoming training yet?
Wonder if they made all offers for May's IFR and VFR courses. Seems likely seeing as there's only ~12-14 seats to go around and it's not that many calls to make.... If I don't receive a call by the end of the week I think I can assume that there will be no offer forthcoming.

Re: Has anyone in Moncton FIR received a call for an in-person interview?
I asked a question about relocation for trainees in the assessment session and the answer was that there was not a "full" relocation package available as for licensed controllers, but assistance is definitely available. Also, check out this comment from reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/ATC/comments/...

Re: Anyone in the Edmonton FIR contacted for interviews?
Green light VFR! (my first choice)
Hope to hear from more of you soon!
I was told at the interview that they are planning an FSS course in February, and VFR & IFR courses in May. So hopefully early in the new year we start receiving training offers.

Re: VFR Placement Question
At the end of our assessment session on July 21 someone - was it yourself, even? - asked if VFR trainees could expect to be initially assigned to Fort Mac or Yellowknife. Joanne answered that Fort Mac was an unlikely destination for students for the time being due to the ongoing recovery efforts. Th...
