I am wishing for information as to how to become a 911 operator in the

Vancouver Lower Mainland area (Canada). If anyone has any information,

could you please forward it to my email.

Thank you for your time.

I recently started as a 911 telecommunicator for a muncipal of 18000

residents and average 19 incidents per shift with one operator. I have

been offered employment with a County Sheriff which I know will be much

busier.

The pay is more at my current position by about 200.00 per year and the

shift changes every 28 days. At the county the shift is permanant, while

the shift option at the county is appealing, I know I can handle the pace

at the the smaller PSAP.

Any advice from experienced operators about hours -vs- pace would be much

appreciated in addtion to what you think about county -vs- township

opputunities. As for insurance and benifits, they are real close between

the two.

Thank you in advance.
