The Canadian Coast Guard College's
Officer Cadet Training Plan (OCTP) offers two distinct four-year
programs of study at the College in Sydney, Nova Scotia: a Navigation
program and a Marine Engineering program. Officer Cadets live and study at
the College for 45 months and graduate as Ship Officers who are employed on
Coast Guard ships across Canada. Upon successful completion of either program, each graduate is awarded a
Bachelor of Technology in Nautical Sciences degree from Cape Breton
University (CBU), a diploma from the
Canadian Coast Guard College as well as Commercial Certification as a
Deck Officer (Navigation) or as a Marine Engineer.
The number of scholarships is limited to 48 this year and the OCTP
Recruitment Centre is accepting applications up to March 30, 2007. For
