I believe after training and checking out you are eligible request/bid on transfers which would include training for another position. If you are unsuccessful in the training/checkout at the new site then you go back to your previous position and have to wait I think it's an additional 3 years befor...

Oh vfrdreamer I am so sorry to hear that!

In my fic class last year there were 2 women and 3 men, on the job it’s more like 20 or 25%

Once or twice a year seems to be the trend. Last one was in January I believe!

It has been quite the ride for sure! Glad to know my posts have been useful lol! I know I used to like reading stuff but people at different stages so I thought I’d keep going :). Hopefully you will do the same when you get in! I can’t remember...have you had an interview yet or are you still waitin...

I am so glad it’s going well! Which group are you in? Time definately speeds by! I can’t wait till fall when I’m checked out. Right now I still feel like I know nuthin! Lol. I know your program is a lot longer but I’m sure it will still go by super fast!

How’s the ifr training going guys?? We just finished our classroom training...on the job training starts in a couple of weeks!

Currently doing training as an fss...my eyesight is corrected to near 20/20 with glasses or contacts. However prescription is like +7.5 for both eyes. As long as your eyesight is corrected with glasses you should be fine

There’s a good map of the fir regions on their website https://www.navcanada.ca/EN/careers/tec ... ons_EN.pdf If that link works... which tower are you hoping for?

Ya a week is a long time to be waiting! It will be worth it tho and congrats on the offer!!

Kamloops is great! The course is a ton of work! Everybody is super nice tho and they all Cleary want us to succeed so overall it's been a great experience :) Estrela..I didn't get a verbal offer...I got an email offer on one day and received more details and a link to the ita the next day. How long ...

There are 5 of us.

That’s cool that you found so many people on your course! I never found anybody lol. On the fic course we didn’t have to do the whole ita but we did get a whole other weather online course to do prior to our start date. It is definately time consuming!

How’s it going guys?

Have you guys started the ita?

Congrats Wanderlust and dbebez! That is amazing news! I am sooooo happy for you!! Thst must be the best Xmas present ever! I am sure you will do great wanderlust! So exciting!

As that's too bad! So hopefully you get an offer soon so we can find out!

Ya that’s weird...maybe send them an email? Maybe they don’t officially stream ppl they just offer courses?

How did the interview go wos?

Sounds like u passed! Now back to waiting again lol

I wasn’t too confident with my interview when it was over lol so I’m sure you did better than you think! I was assigned a stream the same day I got the green light...about 2 weeks after my interview...it asked me to upload a headshot and as soon as I did that my stream of fic showed up. Anothe 2 wee...

Hi guys, I'm currently in trainining, started in october...but I got an email invite to an interview last week so I'd say ya it's a tad glitchy...

Can't give away too much info but like any interview make sure you know stuff about the company.....beyond just ifr, vfr, and fss. Other than that it's a lot like the phone interview. You guys will do great!

I’m sure you guys wii do great! I recommend listening to LiveATC.com to let your ears practice lol. It will definitely be useful...even at the fic we will be talking to pilots on the radio. I imagine in the beginning there will be a lot of uhhhh say again? Lol. I didn’t get a tour of the acc either ...

Ooh Trip to India sounds amazing! Not positive but I think the next FIC course will be in May, IFR I’m pretty sure has a January start date, not sure about about vfr but they’re most recent class started in September. Hopefully it all works out and you can go on your trip! Good luck with your interv...

Yes I was with pasco! Sounds like there will be another fic course starting in April or May next year...so definitely don’t write that off! Been kinda fun learning about weather and it’d be cool if some of us ended up working together lol.
