FOR CADETS
Cadets Canada

This is the national governing body representing the civilian side of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets. The League is headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario and governs matters nationally in cooperation with the Canadian Forces.
Ontario Provincial Committee (OPC)

Cadet365 Resources Access
All Cadets will have access to their own cadet email address ending in "cdt.cadets.gc.ca", which will allow them to access Cadet resources. This will be beneficial and be used for Summer training and other purposes.
What is Cadet365?
Cadet365 is a collaborative platform for Cadets and Adult Staff across Canada. The suite provides access to familiar products like Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, Planner, OneNote and OneDrive. The aim of the suite is to promote collaboration and facilitate remote work.
The innovative cloud-based platform enables the team to work on both personal and work devices. This is a proven solution that balances the need to innovate and continue working with the need to maintain security and accountability.

You will be able to use the different apps to collaborate with your colleagues. To complete the onboarding process, you will need to contact the Sqn Administration Officer, Capt.
