Initially scheduled a 4/21 ATP-CTP with 5/1 Indoc class on the CRJ. Told in March that this class date has been suspended due to captain upgrade training demands. Received notice yesterday that projected start date is Oct.-Dec. of this year. Anybody else electing the CRJ able to confirm this?

They can offer you a CJO after your interview and after the internal decision process they do. What you should be focused on is when you can get a class date. However, right now, they are not placing people in classes until they reach their respective minimums fully. Lately, they’ve had to remove people from classes because they tried to cut it close and ended up not getting their hours in time. January could be possible for a class, but it’s totally circumstantial on your flight time, and when you interview.

If that’s the case, I’d just apply now. Maybe someone else on here can backup or give different advice. But if you’re with those qualifications, just apply now since interview slots are currently a little sparse and class dates are backed up a bit. If they catch up with class dates and they try to put you in an August one or something, you can just tell them you need to wait a bit for Jan. They shouldn’t have a problem with that. Only thing is that you need to be aware of is you can’t sit more than 6 months until you need to re-interview. I don’t think I have that straight, so maybe someone else can verify.

I haven't been assigned a class date yet (CRJ), just waiting on finishing one last requirement before they'll assign me one. If I get the ATP-CTP course done myself, will that speed things up at all when being assigned a class date?

Not by much, and you’ll be out 4 grand if you do it yourself. The wait for a class date is dependent on OO’s training department, not the ATP-CTP.
