Show detail Hide detail

Canada. Canadian Armed Forces. Canadian Forces School of Communications and Electronics : The Canadian Forces School of Communications and Electronics (CFSCE) has its roots in three former service training centres. The Royal Canadian Corps of Signals trained in Kingston at the Royal Canadian School of Signals (RC of S) from 1937 to 1969. The Air Force conducted training at RCAF Station Clinton, 1 Radar and Communications School (1 RC&S) between 1940 and 1971 while Naval Communicator Research personnel were trained at HMCS Gloucester south of Ottawa from 1946 to 1972.

After unification, on 12 February 1969, a new school, the Canadian Forces School of Communications and Land Ordnance Engineering (CFSCLOE) was formed in Kingston. This School encompassed and amalgamated the training formerly conducted at Mechanical Engineers (RCEME) School, which had operated in McNaughton Barracks across the road from the Signal School in Vimy Barracks. In the Fall of 1969, all radio operator, teletype operator, radio technician and teletype technician training formerly done at 1 R&CS in Clinton was transferred to CFSCLOE in Kingston.

On 1 June 1970, the School underwent a major reorganization and was renamed the Canadian Forces School of Communications and Electronics Engineering (CFSCEE).

In July 1971, the former 1 R&CS at Clinton was completely closed and all ground radar training was transferred to CFSCEE. By the end of the same year, all former RCEME training had been tranferred to the Canadian Forces School of Aerospace and Ordnance Engineering at CFB Borden, Ontario.
The most recent addition to the School took place in November 1972, when Communicator Research training commenced in the newly-formed E Squadron following the closure of HMCS Gloucester in Ottawa. On 8 April 1981, CFSCEE became CFSCE, a title that more accurately reflects the primary school function of training Communications and Electronics trades personnel.
