The Raven program is hosted by the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) for Indigenous Peoples from across Canada. The national program is designed to build bridges with Indigenous communities throughout the country and offer part-time or full-time employment with the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) upon successful completion of the course.
Whether or not graduates choose to continue on with a career in the CAF, Raven offers Indigenous culture and teachings along with military training with a Naval influence. It helps develop skills such as self-confidence, self-discipline, teamwork, time management, respect and physical fitness.
