Public Accounts committee It's about eight years. I'd have to double-check that.

RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee It was nine in my time, but programs do change slightly. As far as your question is concerned, Mr. Chair, as it relates to the balance and the academic versus the military culture going there, so we need a balance. We do have some military professors on the faculty. The faculty

RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee Thank you for your question. These are indeed avenues we are exploring. I am from Gaspé myself. I lived in Gaspé and in Carleton-sur-Mer in the detachment.

RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee Yes, and those avenues are important. Some of this new technology is used in co-operation with other organizations, such as the Royal Military College St-Jean, which collaborates on quite a large scale with the Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu CEGEP.
March 1st, 2018Committee meeting
RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee As for accreditation, we want to make sure that if people leave the college, they can transition easily and obtain their CEGEP diploma, for instance.

RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee If I may, there are opportunities for civilians to take courses. They do a lot in distance learning and through other programs, particularly on the post-grad side. I'd have to check. I don't have the figures for tuition. I haven't done the reimbursement of tuition for someone rec
March 1st, 2018Committee meeting
RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee The majority of students are military. A master's degree like the Master of Defence Studies is an RMC degree, it's offered through the Canadian Forces College in Toronto, so that matches up with our mid-grade major, like colonel, professional military education program. Other mas
March 1st, 2018Committee meeting
RAdm Luc Cassivi
Public Accounts committee We don't have many foreign students at the military college. We have a foreign program where students operate out of RMC Saint-Jean because of capacity, and they do most of their distance learning program through RMC. We have an exchange program of one semester with a few militar
