What graduates have to say about the Indigenous Pre-Cadet Training Program

"Applying to the Aboriginal (Indigenous) Pre-Cadet Training Program is the best choice I've ever made."

"I wasn't sure about a career with the RCMP. The Aboriginal (Indigenous) Pre-Cadet Training Program changed that for me. I loved every drill, fitness, and classroom session at Depot."
