This World Book Day, take a moment to pick up a book, explore a new idea, and set sail on your next learning adventure! 📖

Spring Term is underway, boats are in the water and instructors are running emergency steering drills, as well as other routine checks to ensure smooth sailing before students hit the water this summer!

This #NationalPublicSafetyWeek, we salute MCTS officers who manage emergency calls and coordinate lifesaving responses. The CCG Academy is proud to train these dedicated first responders.

This sea phase, 22 engineering cadets are sailing on 14 vessels located from NL to BC, joining 28 navigation cadets who’ve been at sea since January. Real experience, real responsibility, and real impact on the water. 🌊⚓

CCGS Spindrift has been outfitted with a new Dacon Rescue Frame, providing a safer and more efficient way to recover individuals from the water.

Two officer cadets are gaining hands-on experience aboard Canada’s newest OOSV, CCGS Naalak Nappaaluk, transiting from BC to NS.

Each winter semester, officer cadets carry on a historic seamanship tradition: hand sewing their own sea bags, inspired by the days when officers trained aboard the Bluenose.
