ACR – Sunday 26 May

Mark you calendars! It’s only a few weeks until our Annual Ceremonial Review (ACR).

The ACR is our final parade of the training year. Cadets hold a formal parade with year end awards, presentations, and promotions. Cadets are expected to attend and Family and Friends are encouraged to attend.

We kindly request that if you know you will attend please RSVP to Captain Drew with your name and the number in your party so we can set up an appropriate number of chairs and take numbers into account for refreshments.

RSVP to Capt Drew at Ashley.drew@cadets.gc.ca

Cadets are expected to be at the hall by 1PM on Sunday to help with setup and run through a quick practice outdoors.

Dress will be C1, or C1A for those with medals. This is your full blue uniform including blue dress pants, blue tunic, light blue dress shirt, tie, polished parade boots, tunic, and wedge.

Mon 27 May – No Cadets

As our Annual Ceremonial Review will be held the day prior, there will be no cadets this week.

Orienteering – 1 Jun

Our multi-unit orienteering activity will be on 1 Jun 2024. This activity requires you to sign up so we can account for meals and get numbers for activities. More details to follow shortly.

Screening Paperwork

As a reminder, those who took home adult screening forms back in November, please remember to return them so we can complete the screening process. 

CAF Tech Talks

‘Tech Talks’ is an interactive online CAF Engagement presentation that features CAF members in their workplace. These episodes provide a general awareness of the many CAF occupations not normally seen in the popular media. Cadets can log-in from their corps/sqn, or on their own devices, for an introduction to, and interaction with, some of the many technicians that keep our ships afloat, soldiers on the ground, and aircraft in the sky.

Events will be posted here when available. 

Cadet 365 Accounts

Cadet 365 is a cadet office account that allows cadets access to Microsoft products free of charge. This includes giving them access to Teams where various communications and resources are provided. 

All cadets have been issued a Cadet 365 account and credentials were provided previously. All cadets need to log into and finish setting up their accounts. 

Once set up, cadets also need to complete the Cyber Security Awareness course. Once your account is set up, the course can be accessed by searching the home page or via this link https://cjcr365.sharepoint.com/sites/cyber  

These accounts are becoming increasingly important and it is required for summer camps as online courses and communication come through this account. Cadets cannot participate in summer training without a valid Cadet 365 account. 

If you need assistance setting up your account or require your login credentials, see Capt Drew on Monday night. You can also contact the Helpdesk at 1-855-252-8082.

Step by step procedure to complete the initial onboarding and FAQ for cadets are available on Canada.ca.
