(Not training expectation date, but Nov. 19th.)" So if you had finished IOE AFTER 5/18/06, they aren't letting people go to a new training event on a lateral or down bid.

If that's not the case, call in ASAP to make sure the final is right!
I kind of follow this but it doesn't jive with me being awarded the position on the second practice bid. Also, if I'm 11FM, does the company consider a lateral to 11FA as "going to a new training event"? Why would they lock you out of that if there's no new training?

Sounds like The Baron might have the answer. I didn't make the secondary cut-off.

Thanks for the help.

Don't give up though. As you know, practice bids almost never resemble the final award.
