For the first time in 2 years, the Canadian Forces Liaison Council (CFLC)  is offering an opportunity to experience what reservists learn in the military. The purpose of Executrek is to invite employers to experience life of a reservist so companies see the skills reservists bring to the workplace.

EX BISON SHIELD is a Brigade Training Exercise (BTE) with participation from various units within 38 Canadian Brigade Group (38 CBG).  The exercise will held at CFB Shilo from August 19-28, 2022.  We are tentatively planning a one day Executrek on Thursday August 25.

The Preliminary Schedule for 25 August is as follows

• Meet at central location in Winnipeg (e.g. Minto Armoury) at 0800 hrs and board Bus
• Arrive Shilo 1030hrs and link up with 38 Brigade
• Receive briefing at 1100hrs
• Move to activity area TBD (e.g. gun line) 1130hrs
• Eat lunch at activity area 1200hrs
• View training 1300hrs to 1400hrs
• Final departure 1430hrs
• Arrive Minto 1700hrs Executrek ends

Some examples of ideal candidates to attend the Executrek would include:

• Employer representatives (Supervisory managers, Senior managers, HR representatives) of organizations employing (or having potential to employ) reservists
• Representatives of business organizations (e.g. Chambers of Commerce, trade/industry associations, etc)
• Representatives of educational organizations (who may employ reservists or have students who are reservists)

I had the opportunity to participate in an Executrek event pre-pandemic. It was an incredible experience. – Carol Paul
