Default June training ?

I was awarded June 21 training with July conversion. There is nothing on icrew nothing on pbs to bid around.::I’ve read the contract, tried to contact the company with no response. I know there are a bunch of us in same scenario, what is the likely hood of actually training this early, has anyone been through this before where training is scheduled so fast ? Do they buy you off your trips if they schedule iq ? Is it good to backload your schedule ?

I may have read this wrong, but isn’t it supposed to be posted to DBMS before the 4th of the prior bid month?

Edit, looks like it just changes how you have to be notified if it’s before or after the 4th.
  • If your training is scheduled for the next bid month after the 4th of the current bid month, you will either be called or emailed directly about your training, and then it will be added to DBMS.

But if you decline to have it preposted such that you bid around it, you’ll bid without it on your pbs calendar. Then if they put training into your June schedule, you’ll be paid for conflicting trips.

I had this several years ago. The company merely buys any trips that touch your training and then pay you the greater of the value of the trips bought/dropped or the value of training. This is why they like to pre-post prior to 1800 on the 4th...so that they get the full benefit of PBS.

You could roll the dice and backload but, if you do not have an iCrew pop-up saying you have an actual date (on your VTS menu) then you are merely dealing with projection and not reality.
