What it does

The Canadian Coast Guard College is a national, degree-conferring bilingual training institution that educates the marine professionals necessary to deliver Canadian Coast Guard programs in support of marine safety, security, and environmental protection. Coast Guard’s Fleet Operational Capability, Procurement, and Maintenance, Shore-Based Asset Readiness, Marine Communications and Traffic Services, Search and Rescue, and Marine Environmental and Hazards Response programs are able to function as a direct result from the delivery of this program. The legal basis for this program is found in the Constitution Act, 13 Provincial & territorial governments, and the Oceans Act.
