Land Force Central Area Training Centre Meaford - LFCATC Meaford

LFCATC Meaford

A mid-1990s reorganization of the Canadian Forces saw Force Mobile Command redesignated Land Force Command, with its units across Canada divided geographically. The newly created Land Force Central Area redesignated MTSCM into Land Force Central Area Training Centre Meaford (LFCATC Meaford).

LFCATC Meaford is currently the primary training centre for Land Force Central Area's reserve units. Regular Force units from CFB Petawawa are also minor users of the facility.

The training centre conducts year round courses for regular force personnel, while expanding dramatically during the summer months to accommodate a large number of courses for reserve personnel. During the period of September–June LFCATC Meaford serves as the primary weekend training location for reserve unit exercises for units from the and other locations across Southern Ontario. LFCA TC Meaford currently holds basic qualification courses as well as infantry and artillery training. It is visited by various outside units including multiple police forces and other nations. It also provides minimal simulators and training for urban environments.
