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 Lt Drew on Monday night. You can also contact the Helpdesk at 1-855-252-8082.
