Yes. Successful applicants will still have to write the CFAT during the one year program before they continue with an occupation. Your score will be preserved and you will not need to re-write. @@rachelthompson4441
I heard you will have to write the CFAT at the BMQ. And if you fail, you will not be able to graduate the NEP and apply for Naval Reserves. Is this true???
Great video PO! The competence crew course that you were talking about was one of the best courses ive taken so far and later this month, we've gotten an opportunity to do a coast swap for a couple weeks to see CFB Halifax so im looking forward to seeing the other side of Canada.
This is really amazing, I sailed aboard the Roter Sand about 10 years ago, even tho I have much more experience on land, the experience of sailing was probably where I was the happiest in my life. This program offer so many opportunities and there are so many great jobs inside the Navy. Plus, I'd imagine that one could decide to join the Coast Guard after the program and would find great employment there as well!
I'm depressed but not surprised to see that it's taking longer than originally expected to process candidates. This is going to undermine the program's effectiveness.
Thank you so much for this video and all your information. So helpful! My son applied in November and it has been a slow process. I'm guessing the CAF are inundated with applications. 5 months waiting and just found out that the security clearance is just about to start.
You can do the NEP and then choose HR or Finance at the end. You may not job shadow those jobs, but no reason you can’t choose them if you want to continue with the Forces.
If you join and get to a coast, I don’t see why it would be an issue for the NEP staff to loan you out to an Orderly Room on whichever base you’re at to shadow and learn.
I signed up for the CAF because of this program. I did well in the CFAT and have a degree so the recruiter urged me to take an officer position. I declined because the 1 year contract was too enticing. You mentioned you can apply for officer positions after the NEP, but realistically how difficult would it be to do that?
Hopefully it will not be hard! Make sure you mention your degree to the personnel selection officer when you talk about occupations. The only issue I can think of is the Officer Basic Training has an extra section, so they may make you do it again.
If I’ve done my final interview, security clearance and tests with the Reserves + medical. Now I’m just waiting to hear from the CFRC for acceptance , how long does this usually take? Is this just processing at this stage or can I be denied for any reason? Thank you for the video and all the helpful content. ⚓️🍁
At the end of the program if you choose to stay full time you will go through the same process as all Regular Force members. You will have some input into where you work, but ultimately it would be where you are needed by the organization. I have heard they are doing better at accommodating people’s wishes, but I am a reservist so I am not an expert.
@PrairieSailor Awesome video. Within the Naval force is there no Cyber Operator role? Since you pointed out that during the NEP program you get to learn a bit of every job occupation. Is Cyber Operator role included within the Navy through the NCM route?
Yes, Cyber Operator is open to the Navy as an NCM route. Cyber Operator is not one of the occupations that the Naval Experience Program focuses on because it is not a Navy specific occupation, but you could choose to be a Cyber Operator at the end of the NEP (if you meet all of the eligibility requirements).
Son leaves for basic soon and is joining through the NEP program. Question, you mentioned St Jean for basic then BC for the 5 week navy training? I assumed he would go right to Halifax for remainder time after basic training as that is where he has chosen to be be.
I believe he will go to Victoria for the 5 week Naval Environmental Training before he goes to Halifax. The damage control training facility is in Esquimalt. Here is a great video on the training: ua-cam.com/video/Vw6wFXWVUA4/v-deo.htmlsi=OXxpNMCtdU5tx-J0
Hello, can you make a video on what time frames on average it takes to get promoted within ranks in the CAF or maybe just the Navy at both enlisted and officer's level?
That’s a great idea! Time frames vary significantly, especially in the Reserve. I haven’t been promoted for 10 years so I probably couldn’t make that video without being too bitter.
I have wondered if you did this program and at the end of the year decided don’t want to take a navy position but rather go into the army say infantry would that mean having to do basic training all over again
Hi! First of all, I just found your channel and I have been binging so many videos. Thank you so much for the wonderful content. However, I do have a question that I'm hoping you can help me with! I plan on applying to join the forces (a bit undecided if it will be regular or NEP, but my current issue is regarding transcripts from previous education. The college that I went to in 2009 does not exist anymore. Around 2012 they closed and transformed into an entirely newly named and funded college. Then in 2018 they ceased their college entirely and the "business" closed. No other college took over. There is currently no contact information for the original college I went to, OR the one that took over from them and closed in 2018, so I have no ability to obtain my transcripts from my successful time in 2009 in college. What would I do in that situation for the documents section?
Do you have access to high school transcripts? College is not required for NCM. Also if you have the degree or diploma and there really is no way to get the transcripts it may be accepted.
I just completed the medical and interview process for army reserves, but i think this program would be a much better choice. However, the online application wont let me apply to this program.
I was thinking about applying to the new nep program.. but do you get paid your full salary during BMQ because someone told me you get less money and most of your money goes towards meals and your living quarters… this makes it difficult for people having bills at home.
@@kolbyjoudrey7145 That is incorrect. A specific benefit of the NEP program is that meals and accommodations are covered at no cost to you. And yes you get paid your full salary for the entire one year period including when you are on BMQ.
I’m 17, applied a few days ago haven’t left the country recently and have been a Canadian citizen for my whole life. I am adequately fit, have no medical issues, pretty sure I’ll pass cfat, applied recently only because I’ve heard the application takes a while due to security clearances. My only problem is I’m in my last semester of high school and want to graduate first before I go off to basic training. If I get an offer somehow before graduation, will they let me graduate high school first? Or do I have to just leave when they tell me to. Thank you.
The security clearance should not take long given there information you have provided. Yes, you will be able to have input on your enrolment date (at least at my unit). If you let them know your grad date, you should be able to get your file ready for enrolment and schedule your ceremony and a BMQ start date shortly after.
No, you do not have to know how to swim when you join! There is a swim test on Basic Training, but it’s ok if you don’t pass. You can practice swimming after the test.
Hi! I'm looking into this program and just wondering, on the forces website it says the intake for this program is spring, is this correct? I'm also wondering if BMQ and the navy training is included in the one year part of the NEP, or if it's one year PLUS basic and naval training? Thanks!
Yeah, I like to add something what will happen if you hurt your ankle in the recruitment centre doctor said that you might have to get that better by the time when we accept your application
Hey prairie sailor I have a question. I went through the application process yesterday but haven’t had an in person interview yet. In the application I did choose two different full time career paths I might want. So when I have my interview will I be able to tell them I’d like to join the NEP? Or should I try a different method of application or just wait for the interview?
@@PrairieSailor i apologize I think I made things a bit unclear and the recruiting centre called me to book an appointment yesterday. I told him over the phone that I’d like to do the NEP and he said okay and was asking for other positions so I told him naval communicator also. I go for my CFAT test in a few days so I just wanna make sure I can choose that path still. Should have watched your videos before the online application process but I selected naval communicator and infantry. Idk if that messed anything up or not and don’t want to spring anything on the recruiters when I get there. Honestly just unfamiliar of the whole process and looking for some guidance😂.

You can change selections you made in the online application easily by telling your recruiter you want to change your choices. The earlier you do it in the process the better.

@@PrairieSailor Do you know if schools allow the whole year of CO-OP or is it just a semester not sure if you covered that or not.... Cuz rlly looking forward to joining this
You have to wait until you graduate high school. If you are still in school you join join the Naval Reserve, work evenings and weekends, and go to the coast for your summer job.

Here are the dental requirements: www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/corporate/policies-standards/medical-standards-military-occupations/dental-enrolment-standards.html
Not at all! I get applicants into their 50s and it is not unusual. I had some members 40+ on BMQ when I was an instructor and they were excellent recruits. Providing leadership and experience to younger sailors from the ranks is very valuable. It’s never too late to get started, go for it!
I have applied for Human Resources Administrator. I have been told that I can chosee between the three forces, either army, air forces or navy. If I choose the Navy as a Human Resources Administrator does that count as joining the Navy experience program?
It will not automatically. If you want the Naval Experience Program you need to specifically apply for it. It will be 1 year instead of three, and you won’t do HR right away, you will job shadow several Navy jobs.
Did my application is being processed right now I have slip and fall in the military staff recruits. We read the mud and I like to know what would be worry about. I stand walk yes I can. I haven’t gone to civilian doctor yet because I haven’t got a civilian doctor. I was transplant that to my recruiter at HMS coachrecruitment centre in Halifax, but the recruiter here we got word with each other. I told him off at the same.
My job does grant leave for reserve training, but part of me is afraid that most positions seems to say they require multiple months of full time training. Are there any reserve positions that wouldnt require fulltime training that isnt more than 2-3months away fulltime?
A lot of trades have modulized courses. Even though the navy does have a lot of longer trades courses/training periods you can split it up into 2-3 week segments. After getting trades training your next step is doing ur OJP packages. You can do it slowly in 1 month increments but you wouldn’t get a hell of a lot done. Typically speaking people take 6mon-1 year contracts to work on their the package and it depends how motivated you are. Some people are able to in some trades with less difficult packages within just a couple months. But it really depends on how much opportunities you’re given. EX, a lot of west coast people get posted to the Brandon and do fuck all for their entire contract because it doesn’t sail. East coast reservists right now seem to get a better shot at sailing but still it can be hard to fight for the sailing time. If you’re really unlucky it can take you years to finish that package
Good reply here from unnamed, most occupations divide training into modules. Courses can range greatly from 2 weeks - 3 months in length. I would talk to a recruiter more specifically about what occupations you are interested in, some require less training than others.

Good day, sir. I just want to know the process for military police reserved and how long it will take you to be able to apply for full-time. Do you need to finish certain trainings or years as a reservist? Is the class A reservist gets benefits? I know some on medical, but how about on Dental? Thank you
Class A Reservists get dental benefits, 90% coverage on routine care up to a certain amount. Benefits are not quite as good as full-time, but amazing for a part-time job. Details here: www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/services/canada-reserve-force/information-reservists/reserve-force-benefits.html
You can apply to switch to full time at any point. There is a big difference if you complete training first and make it to OFP, operational functional point, but you can do it either way. If you are not OFP you may have to repeat some training.
You are saying sir, as long I finished my training for military police as a reservist, for example 6 months as a reservist. I am fully trained and OFP. I am eligible to apply for full-time at any time. I do not need to wait for opening spot it’s always available to switch as long you are qualified?Thank you

Good day, sir. I just want to know the process for military police reserved and how long it will take you to be able to apply for full-time. Do you need to finish certain trainings or years as a reservist? Is the class A reservist gets benefits? I know some on medical, but how about on Dental? Thank you
Class A Reservists get dental benefits, 90% coverage on routine care up to a certain amount. Benefits are not quite as good as full-time, but amazing for a part-time job. Details here: www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/services/canada-reserve-force/information-reservists/reserve-force-benefits.html
You can apply to switch to full time at any point. There is a big difference if you complete training first and make it to OFP, operational functional point, but you can do it either way. If you are not OFP you may have to repeat some training.
You are saying sir, as long I finished my training for military police as a reservist, for example 6 months as a reservist. I am fully trained and OFP. I am eligible to apply for full-time at any time. I do not need to wait for opening spot it’s always available to switch as long you are qualified?Thank you
I’m sorry, one year for what?
Join the Navy for one year.

It’s weird that UA-cam recommends this to me an American.
Get a hair cut!
i wish the navy wasnt so woke these days. it seems to focus on the wrong things and less about our great tradition and more about rainbow flags
nobody cares what you have to say
