Sommaire - Overview

Le Collège militaire royal du Canada (CMR), situé à Kingston, Ontario, est une académie militaire bilingue anglais-français. Seule université fédérale au Canada, il forme le personnel des Forces armées canadiennes. Wikipédia

The Royal Military College of Canada, RMC, or RMCC (French: Collège militaire royal du Canada), is the military college of the Canadian Forces, and is a degree-granting university creating military officers. RMC was established in 1876. RMC is the only federal institution in Canada with degree granting powers. The Royal Military College of Canada Degrees Act, 1959 empowers the college to confer degrees in arts, science, and engineering. Programmes are available at the undergraduate and graduate levels on site through traditional studies and by distance learning through the Division of Continuing Studies.[1]

Located on Point Frederick, a 41-hectare (101-acre) peninsula in Kingston, Ontario, the college is a blend of older, historic buildings and modern academic, athletic, and dormitory facilities.[4] Officer cadets are trained in academics, officership, athletics, and bilingualism[5] (French and English). These are what the Canadian Armed forces consider to be the four pillars of success in the military. Wikipedia

Saint-Jean et Victoria (RIP 1995)

Le Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean (CMR)

Le Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean (en abrégé CMR) était une académie militaire dont le rôle était analogue à celui du Collège militaire royal du Canada de Kingston en Ontario. Le CMR fut fondé en 1952 sous le format d'un collège classique. Son ouverture avait comme premier objectif de rendre équitable la représentation canadienne-française dans le corps des officiers de chacun des trois éléments des Forces canadiennes. Le CMR faisait partie intégrante du cercle des Collèges militaires canadiens tout comme le Collège militaire royal du Canada et le Royal Roads Military College (RRMC) jusqu'en 1995, date à laquelle le ministère de la Défense nationale ferma le CMR et le RRMC. Le CMR a repris du service en 2007 en tant que cégep pour les officiers du Programme de formation des officiers de la Force régulière (PFOR). (Wikipédia)

Royal Roads Military College (RRMC)

Royal Roads Military College (RRMC) was a Canadian military college (1940 to 1995) located in Hatley Park, Colwood, British Columbia near Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. The facility is currently being used as the campus for Royal Roads University, a public university that offers applied and professional academic programs on campus and via distance education. The centrepiece of the campus is Hatley Castle, constructed in the early part of the 20th century by B.C. coal baron James Dunsmuir for his wife, Laura. The house had been purchased as a wartime residence for the King, Queen, and their daughters. (Wikipedia)
