Ottawa-based Calian Group says it will be extending its work on a pair of military training projects after re-winning two long-term contracts with the Department of National Defence.
The first agreement will see Calian provide training services for the Canadian Armed Forces’ Military Personnel Generation Formation, which runs training and recruitment programs.
The one-year deal is worth $7 million and includes two one-year extension options, which could bring its total value to $21 million.
