I went to the Cadet Corps Andre was the commanding officer of. Awesome guy and leader I learned a lot about leading by respect from him. It's great to see him doing well! thank you for another lesson Mr Sheppard. -We are swift and we are sure!.
@@1anre officers for cadets are part of the cadet instructor cadre (c.i.c.) and have different requirements than the rest of the caf but they can't transfer that rank to the caf and would be subject to the same entry requirements as anyone else
This is absolutely informative. In a much as black folk dislike large bodies of water, im glad to see Black Canadians have been contributing to the RCN for almost more than a century
Hello ! Thanks you for your work into this channel ! I would like to ask you some specific question. I will soon start the processing to become a part-time reservist in the NCSM Champlain, Saguenay, Québec ( I am happy to have found your video, its help me to train my english ;) ). So ! I would like to know about the specific occupation training ? We really dont have a lot of official information about it online. By exemple, on the website for Marine Technician ( The Occupation I would like to do ), the length of specific training is ''several months'' on the CAF website, what that's mean ? I got so many specific question : Where the specific training take place in most of the specialized training after the BMQ, a recruiter once told me the formation could be done in the naval school of Quebec ? Is that possible to obtain some credit in the training from civil degree ( I got a HVAC (Réfrigération degree), a stationary engineering degree ( Boiler Degree ) and a Building Technologies Degree from a Cégep ( That degree allow to concept all mechanic systems in a building, Cegep is Little university in Quebec ) so I already got a good background in thermodynamical science. Thanks ! :)
Thank you for the message! Marine Technician in particular is difficult to nail down the training because it is always changing. They had previously amalgamated the training for the different specializations and they are in the process of separating them again. In general, you will do several months of full time training ranging from 2-4 months in length. They will be located in Esquimalt or Halifax including some time on Ships at sea.
For your previous experience and training, you need to request to do a PLAR - Prior Learning Assessment and Review. You submit all of your training and work experience for equivalency evaluation. I have seen some Marine Technicians be successful in accelerating their career progression by doing a PLAR.
Good to see you well Andre. Cheers Jamie

NCMs were allowed to be commanding officers too?

@@MrAwesomal ah I got it. So he’d still be a petty officer 1 in the cadet corps management?
@@1anre no he was commissioned officer. cpo1 and below are for cadets. the officers supervise the cadets and instruct them.
@@MrAwesomal oh he must've used the CFR program, but why didn't his last rank reflect that he commissioned over by the time he exited the service ?
