The Royal Canadian Air Force Academy (RCAFA) is a

Master Warrant Officer Jason Dunfield.[3]

In the early 1990s, the

St-Jean, Quebec, as well as the Canadian Forces School of Air Reserve Training in Penhold also saw their cadets move to Borden. The ACPDTC was officially opened in 1994, and was renamed the Air Command Academy in October 2004.[4]

The motto of the RCAFA is "Discimus Ducere" (Learn to Lead).

Academy crest

In 1994, the ACPDTC adopted the crest of the former Junior Leader School (JLS) Penhold. It was retained by the unit when it was renamed to the RCAF Academy in 2004. The eagle on a blue field is significant of the Junior Leader School's affiliation with RCAF. The rising sun represents the new horizons and goals attainable by the student, which lead to a brighter future.
