From 1 Sep 2014 onwards, If i take IPT and after the 10 sessions, i still can't meet the PPT, do i still need to go for the additional 8 RT sessions? Pretty confused here...

There is no change to the IPT system. So yes, still have to go for RT.

I see..

But from the FAQ extracted on ns.sg link, it stated that once completed the 10 IPT sessions is consider as clearing the requirement, so was confused..

"With effect from 1 Sep 2014, NSmen will be given 12 months to attempt and pass their IPPT. Alternatively, NSmen that require help can volunteer for a 10-session IPPT Preparatory Training (IPT). NSmen who pass their IPPT or complete IPT will proceed to either IPPT or IPT in their next 12-month birthday window. NSmen who fail or default IPPT or IPT will be subject to Remedial Training (RT). They will be required to complete their RT programme within their subsequent 12-month birthday windows. NSmen who volunteer for IPT will be considered to have met their IPPT requirement for the year if they (1) meet their Personal Performance Targets (PPT) at any point in the programme; or (2) complete 10 sessions of IPT within their birthday window. NSmen on IPT are advised to attend training at least once a week continuously for 10 sessions to obtain the benefits of the training regime."

Then I suggest you call the FCC to double confirm.

Nothing will happen. Rebook another session as makeup.

Thanks for the reply. I heard if this happens too many times some punishment will happen?

This is my first time I will not be going to a session I booked, but just curious to know.

No lah. It's only for non-ict ippt. If you default 3 times, then will bar u from booking another test.

For IPT/RT, as long as you attend all required sessions, u are ok.

Don't think so. I'm a Maju Camp regular and they close their in-processing counter at 1730.

My RT Window has begun, and thanks to the new system, I have until Aug 2015 to clear 20 sessions.

I've read that passing IPPT during your RT period instantly relieves you from RT.

So can I skip all the RT sessions, take the new IPPT at 1 Apr 2015, and its considered clocked for my this year window ?

if i am not wrong, u fail under this window, u have to do the old IPPT till u pass or clear 20 RT then can be released

Unless u fail under the new window, then u do the new ippt

The new 12 months IPT and 12 months RT system already kicked in?

That means the new IPT/RT cycle is now 2 years (1 year + 1 year) instead of 1 year (9 months + 3 months)?

Hi all

Previously was on IPT cycle. Then I took and passed my IPPT last year, so I did not take IPT (considered cleared that cycle)

Just took IPPT yesterday (birthday in Aug) and failed SBJ by 2cm need 207, jumped 205).

Question: if I sign up for IPT and do badly in the IPT-IPPT, which PPT will they assign to me? Since I just need 2 more cm to pass SBJ...as I was thinking if I can book and clear the IPPT using the reduced standards under IPT

You failed SBJ by 2 cm and still have the mood to run 2.4 km?

So for those who now chioing rt to finish their 20 sessions can no need book so many since we have another year more to complete.

I have to complete 20 sessions by 24 Sept 2014. By 31st Aug 2014 I would have completed 10 sessions. So come 1 sep 2014, I have till 23 Sept 2015 to complete 10 more sessions. Is this correct?

How long does IPPT take (I forgot) ? I'm taking at Maju tomorrow at 5:00pm and I have an appointment elsewhere at 7:00pm. If it takes more than 1.5 hours then I'll just absent myself.
