Garda Reserve Training

KIERAN61

Hi,
Just just got word yesterday that I have been accepted and am travelling to Templemore this weekend for training.You normally have to visit the local station twice for interview. This I believe is a means by which they can judge your character and are more informal chats really.They just want to be sure of your level of commitment and that you know what you are getting yourself into.Roll on the Weekend.

Slava1976

Of course it will.I don't think someone will say "NO" to those dates.At least it's still 3 month to organise holidays or days-off from work.Was affraid it will start in a week cos remember previous dates was around end of June.

I noticed phase 3 is a Thursday and Friday. Strange because it's going to be hard enough to get my time off out of work for the 2 weeks only to have to go back down mid week for 2 days. Thankfully my job are understanding.

Slava1976

Yep.Looks like now Phase 1 and 3 are on Thu and Fri...And Phase 2 only 8 days instead of 2 weeks.

Slava1976

Sorry you're right.Phase 3 Thu and Fri and Phase 1 Tue adn Wed.

This is crazy stuff I can see many people being affected by this.

Slava1976

At least Phase 2 now 8 days instead of 2 weeks. p.s. "Always look on the bright side of your life"

Thanks now that song is stuck in my head. Not great days for having a session in the pub, Friday's and Saturdays would have been ideal.

Steveo.

"Best of luck to all you going in to the Garda Reserve".

If some of you can't make the coming phase, I'm sure you'll make the next phase.

Well done guys... It brings back memories.

Just for the record, we are not a separate organisation like the FCA. We are a rank within An Garda Siochana..
There is no such thing as Garda reserve on it own! We are members within the Guards... Let's get it right lads!

Well done future members... Welcome to the hard nock life...

P.S. be aware of the Red Man! during trainning... Pmsl

Cedric87

I can't wait im sure the training will be great crack, can't wait to get started ive heard of a few going down a day early during phase 2 and going for a few drinks, that would be right up my street ha.
Ive heard of red man before but it was in my old school, hopefully not the same thing as you mentioned.

So happy that there is movement on training again.

I want to say a big thanks to all the helpful users on this for all the advice over the past few years, answering questions and helping out with all the stages of the recruitment form interviews and meetings, medicals etc.. Much appreciated for the advice, without all the people posting here would of been a lot harder of a process and may not of even gone my way .Great time to be going in as well just as new powers are being given to reserve members . Again thanks , and the very best of luck to anyone else that got the call for training.

Have you got the medical complete ?

Cedric87

Sorry I see you have the medical done, no I have never heard of them doing that before interesting to see what it's about.

Slava1976

Btw-my friend is Garda Reserve already 3 years and he told me that after he passed his medical he got the same call to pop-in to local Garda station.So I think it's some kind of final clarification before study.I'll keep you updated.
