    So if I'm enroute I basically will be assigned to one of the 23 centers? Just looking at Air Traffic Control Facilities and figuring out which ones I could get.

    Yes exactly

    Yes, but don't worry about it too much. You're going to be given a list to pick from that's constantly rotating based on staffing needs. That list isn't even really predictable because it also depends on how many people pass the academy class leading up to your selection time.

    Academy
    How long is the academy? It depends on what track you are and whether you take basics or not. Online Basics: 19 days Initial Tower: 37 days Initial En Route: 60 days RTF: 25 days TSEW: 21 days TETRA: 20 days What is per diem? Per diem is an extra, untaxed pay to account for government related...

    I know this is a joke, but flip-flops are specifically listed as being prohibited.

    I never got an email from CS about a change, but my class date notification and drug test email came from A"S"VC.

    You've already received your drug test email to schedule it? I got an email this morning from RK saying to look for it over the next day or two, but haven't heard anything as far as actually scheduling it.

    Not to schedule. Just saying that they'd be in contact in a few days. I actually got that email before the class date email.

  13. JUSTHELULZMATTER #7233

    Just received my FOL from RK. Still waiting to schedule my drug test.

    Just remember to take all of the drugs so you know how to pass the test!

    That's wild. I just called the POC for the drug test and they said I should expect the email to schedule it by Monday, but I wouldn't be taking it until Wednesday/Thursday because they have to mail the materials.

    I didn't get instructions to mail anything. They just asked me when I was available. I told them. Then they told me when my appointment was.

    That's what I meant. The FD&AT sends the testing materials to the testing site that you prefer, but it takes time for them to receive them. I haven't received the email to schedule my test yet.

    I just thought it was funny that, from your signature, you're starting basics over a month from now. You've already scheduled your tests, but with me starting in a little over three weeks, I haven't been able to.

    Maybe it has to do with where you live? I'm in Atlanta, so maybe there's just a lot more facilities available near me?

    That's got to be it. I figured you were near a larger hub, i'm out in Portsmouth, VA. Closest thing we have is Norfolk (ORF), and that's a joke for international compared to other locations.
