The CIC Branch Association of BC was founded on the principles of providing ongoing professional development and assistance to the adults supporting the cadet program in British Columbia.  In addition to a number of guest speaker PD sessions, the Association has also taken point on helping coordinate Depart With Dignity celebrations, and has staged, or contributed to events for:
  • Lieutenant-Colonel Steve Deschamps;
  • Captain Mark Adams;
  • Lieutenant-Colonel Wayne Heal;
  • Major Tad Nicol;
  • Captain Roy Herrington;
  • Lt(N) Dan Richard;
  • CWO Ron Western; and
  • Captain Jim Lowdon
  • Captain Howard Grantham
Squadron and Corps sponsoring committees and individuals who are planning DWD events for COATS members are encouraged to contact the Association to see how we can support the event!  Our email is cicbranchbc@gmail.com!

The Association Welcomes Newest Members of the Branch!
Lieutenant-Colonel (Ret) Steven Deschamps (Branch Association founding president) presenting a gold embroidered Branch tri-service cap badge to each of the graduates of the March 2018 Albert Head Cadet Instructor Cadre Occupational Training Course (OTC).  The badges were fully funded by the CIC Branch Association of BC.

Completion of the OTC is the final mandatory training step to qualify to be commissioned as a CIC officer in the Canadian Armed Forces.  The CIC Branch Association of BC exists to support our members' professional development, growth and pride through a variety of programmes. Funding for Association activities is raised through membership fees, kit shop operations and donations.
