Higher-level training is conducted through a variety of fora, principally under the joint combined training program. The principal army focus is on a biennial ABCA exercise and periodic joint seminars, the most recent having been conducted last year in Kingston. This exercise, which was a combined interoperability demonstrator, or CID, entitled CID Borealis, addressed the technical aspects of digitized command and control interoperability. It was a major step forward in Canada–U.S. army technical interoperability. The next step is the next exercise, which is planned for 2004 and is to be hosted by the United States. It will likely include a division-level command post exercise, and also focus on command and control.
