Training at UPS.

[juan]

Question for those who have recently completed training at UPS. Getting ready to start next week, is the 8-10 time frame accurate and were there any gaps when waiting to start sims. Did you just stay in SDF for 10 weeks or was there a chance to bug for a few days. Looking foward to next week..

UPS Training

Just finished....6 April new hire class. Checkride on 1 June, LOFT the next day, IOE starts on 14 June. NO BREAKS while in training. You will get weekends off for the most part, so you can try to go home. Most people went home once or twice before the oral, more after. Oral one day, first sim the next. The "break" we had was for the three day Memorial Day weekend. I got 5 days off for scheduling reasons. Not saying that things couldn't change....but that was my experience.
