About Us

The staff of 3018 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps is comprised of Canadian Armed Forces Members, Civilian Instructors, and Civilian Volunteers.

Cadet Instructor's Cadre (CIC) Officers are paid members of the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve who focus on the development and delivery of training programming to support the cadet program. Their work at the corps is part-time, in addition to their regular civilian jobs.

Civilian Instructors (CI) are paid employees of the Department of National Defence who have been engaged on contract to fill generalist vacancies where a CIC Officer is not available or to provide specialist training.

Civilian Volunteers (CV) are un-paid volunteers who support the organization by either working with unit staff under supervision or by participation in the Support Committee.

Technical Advisors are full-time, Regular Force and Reserve Force, members of the Canadian Armed Forces.  Technical Advisors volunteer their personal time, outside of their working hours and with the support of their chain of command, to support activities and development at the corps.
