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.

13 December at 8PM: Armoured Soldier – Armoured soldiers are an integral part of the combat arms, and operate and maintain their fighting vehicles, either Reconnaissance or Main Battle Tanks. Our presenter works with armoured recce vehicles, and can operate the vehicle, communications systems, and main armament. 

If you are interested in joining the presentation please see Lt Drew and she will provide you the link.

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.

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