Re: Any updates on training?

Are there any trainees who were in specialty or OJT who are still waiting to be called back? I'm guessing all of them would need to be called back in order for ab initio trainees to be re hired.. Probably looking at late 2022 or 2023 for new hires, given how they havent recalled or even reached out...

Re: All Trainees Fired

I had a manager tell be that NavCan was losing $1500 per MINUTE. Thats about $2.1 million dollars per day. Pretty grim. Damn.. that certainly puts things into perspective. I agree with Big Pistons though, it really looked like NAVCAN could have used a bailout or additional funding. Dont want to sta...

Re: All Trainees Fired

Hi from YVR FIR here. I am one of the trainees cut but the rest of the trainees from my class are still in place. However I imagine as time goes on they will cut trainees before they cut licensed controllers. Until those still in training actually get their license it will be a scary time. :cry: I ...

All Trainees Fired

With all the trainees being let go, even those that were just short of qualification, looks like none of us are getting a chance to become ATC anytime soon.

edit- looks like i got it wrong, some specialty and otj still remain, there is a good reddit thread on the topic too.

Re: Any updates on training?

I know this question is for FSS but I personally dont think you should expect an update this year. Like great4bait stated for controllers alot of candidates are still in the waiting pool. There are people that are OTJ, the Spring 2020 classes that were delayed, people who passed the boot camp this s...

Re: YYZ Feb. 2020

Over on reddit trainees were stating that their training was pushed back to May (with pay). So I think we have a good chance of having bootcamp in mid to late May with our training still scheduled for Fall. Joanne also told me that they are still planning on training for the fall but that was last ...

You may be in the same boat as me, I got a second email saying I’m eligible for FSS moments later, actually maybe even before. I believe everyone who did not pass feast got that same email, where the job posting was for ATC and FSS. Not sure if moving to wabush or some other isolated community is s...

Re: YYZ Feb. 2020

I wonder if the recent crash in air travel due to covid-19 along with the recent pull back in the global equities markets has changed nav Canada’s hiring requirements and is related to the delay in results ?

Here hoping they compile the results by weeks end Very frustrating, don't know why it's taking so much longer this time around.
