0 Participation in the COTC programme qualified a man not only as an officer in the Canadian Army but also it developed certain fundamental characteris- tics which are essential to success in any field of en- deavour. Practical leadership training and the knowledge of how to manage men were only two of the important subjects being taught that are of inestim- able value in either a military career or in a civilian profession. There were few other programmes open to university students that provides a comparable course so important in all walks of life during a graduates life. During the year, the UBC Contingent COTC took part in a number of activities on the campus in addi- tion to parading every Monday evening in the Armoury.

Officers of the unit also took part in training schemes arranged by HC. Area Army Headquarters.
