LFDTS was to become the "centre of excellence for Land Force training." On 5 September, 2000, the MND authorized LFDTS as a Regular Force formation allocated to Land Force Command. In April, 2001, the Combat Training Centre (CTC) in Gagetown N.B. will come under command of LFDTS.
LFDTS, a strategic level organization, is responsible for overall command and control of the Army's training system and the long-range planning of Army training and doctrine development, including initiatives in simulation and digitization.
