The Canadian Army Tactics School supports the training and education of Army and other Canadian Armed Forces personnel by providing formal courses, learning support, and Counter-Improvised Explosive Devices and other Centre of Excellence expertise. The Tactics School is focussed on developing the Army's future leaders.[2][3] Much of the school's curriculum revolves around command and employment of a combat team. The Tactics School also holds the Canadian Army Learning Support Centre which "was created to help the Army modernize its training methods [and] includes everything from hyper-realistic computer simulations to purpose-built models turned out using three dimensional printers".[4] Unique amongst Canadian Army training establishments, the School has a high number of civilian contractors, employees, and interns.[5]
