    Hey, are there any WhatsApp groups for people that have everything done? Did my tests last summer, passed the physical and medical around April and met with the local superintendent at the start of summer. I emailed HRM regarding my vetting and came back all cleared in October.. hopefully just waiting on the next intake now but can't get anymore info from HRM.

    That's a good idea if there's a few here with everything done 👍

    Delighted for you man. Mine was 628 from the 2018 campaign. Like many many others the vetting is what is holding me back. Il delete some messages there. I have a WhatsApp group set up if you want to be in it just send me on your name and number. People find it easier to talk on it rather than this.

    I know this isn't my thread bcus I'm not waiting but fyi to anyone. Unfortunately the intakes due to return in Jan have been postponed just for 1 month. But we probably guessed that would happen.

    By given their badges do they not have to go to temple more at all?

    I’ve heard they have to go back to templemore. Online classes were only at the beginning of training for the new intakes

    My partner works with one of the intakes for the next pass out class. And it's a high possibility of them getting badges without going into templemore. As for the intake after I'm not sure where they stand

    Ya my brother is a member in a station in cork and they had a guy in placed there from templemore and was due to go back. He has been told he isn't going to to templemore and will be given his badge.. surely opens up NIC few spaces for intakes? If schools open ok Tuesday surely colleges can't be far off?

    Be fair hard to teach someone how to strike with a baton or use a joint lock through an online class.

    Has anyone heard if there will be a new recruitment campaign this year or will it just be intakes from the 2018/19 campaigns?

    No they have to complete the full course as it’s connected with UL and you get a level 7 degree. They will have to complete time in college eventually to complete their training. 201 have a couple of weeks to go back and do. 202 have 9/10 weeks I think I heard and 203 have 16 weeks to do. 201/202 will be Guards but still have to go back and complete their training in the college. There is also 193’s who have to go back and do some weeks also

    That can't really happen if they are going to recruit 650 new gardai this year I'd say they may come up with some compromise.

    I know it’s hard to know what way it’s going to plan out. Unfortunately Covid doesn’t help us. However the guys getting their badges do have to go back to templemore that’s definitely going to happen. Also recruitment needs to happen too. I guess just sit tight concentrate on our current jobs and our time will come eventually

    For such a smart answer
    .... Im sure they've had training in this considering their time left to pass out and the great experience they have being out in stations. The info I've been getting in the past has been pretty solid with the connections I have. So I think ill stick with it. I come here to give people a heads up with some info.

    I'm fairly sure Witcher was merely commenting on the general inefficacy of online classes for such training, rather than calling into question your suggestion..

    Witcher is completely correct, you cant be trained in baton, handcuffs and spray online.
    202 and 203 were sent out with no PPE so no they werent trained beforehand. You cant use any of those items when you are not an attested Garda.
    Maybe check your connections
