I am slowly losing hope but am so grateful for this update! Thank you a million times! I really hope we hear something soon!
Just wondering, do you have any idea or information when the next training will begin?
Again, thank you for the update I really appreciate any and all information available!
Have a great day!
If I had to guess, I would say that the next training would start sometime early next year (January or February).
Also, I was informed that we would be called up for that training sometime this year, with December being the latest possible and to be on the lookout for a letter from either NYCHA or DCAS.

Thanks for the updates. Looks like we'll be going back to 1pp to sign paperwork again, since we're being called off the list. God works in mysterious ways. His timing.
Hey guys. I can't wait until all of you are in the academy and sent to commands. We so need you guys. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Well...not about hiring...the process has changed significantly since I was a PAA.
Hope is well. If you don't mind me asking, what do you do now? A class started in October. We are waiting to hear about possibly going into the academy in January or February. Has it changed for the better or worse? Should we be worried?
I read the summary on the form before signing up to take the test and I tried to get more information about what the job entails, but not much came up. Any information you can give us?
Thanks!

without divulging too much of myself on the internet, I am a civilian supervisor. NYPD has significantly changed. Some say the better...some say for the worse. What I can tell you is that working for NYPD is different from any job you have ever had. You're going to hear things...and see things that will blow your mind. If you're hypersensitive, this is the wrong agency. You cannot be thin-skinned. A common conversation with your supervisor may involve tons of profanity and its just regular conversation. Precinct life and detail (a detail is any place thats not a precinct) life are completely different. There is more freedom at precincts but some people prefer office settings.
There isnt a specific task for PAAs. You can be in the complaint room taking complaints from the public. you can be assigned to payroll-ensuring everyone in the precinct gets paid. You can be rollcall- which assigns all uniformed and civilian employees their assignments each day or in domestic violence unit entering domestic incident reports. If youre in an office, then your duties will drastically differ.
Just remember that NYPD is a 24/7 day operation. do not build your life around having saturdays and sundays off and working during the day. If you have a family prepare them in case you have to work evenings or midnights with weekdays off.

Happy Sunday!
Thanks for the response. The information was helpful. I had previously had the conversation with my family regarding possibly working on the weekend and holidays didn't think about the night shifts.
No problem. When I was in the academy I told myself I was going to be working either four to twelve or Midnights with Tuesday and Wednesday off. I got used to that so if it did happen....I was prepared. Start getting your family together early about your possible tour and don't be disappointed if you do not get a day tour with Saturdays and Sundays off.
