21 Electronic Warfare Regiment (21 EW Regt) exists to provide trained Army Electronic Warfare operators and support personnel to the Canadian Forces. We are the only Reserve Electronic Warfare (EW) Squadron within the Canadian Forces that is a part of a Regular Forces Regiment. This allows excellent opportunity for the unit and its members to train, exercise and deploy with both Regular & Reserve Force units throughout the country or potentially to (voluntarily) deploy overseas. Deployments occur both in their EW Specialties, and in positions related to their initial trades training. Electronic Warfare involves the intercept, Location, Analysis and Jamming of a potential enemy's communications on the modern battlefield. To fulfill our mission, we combine the training of Signals Intelligence Specialists, Intelligence Operators, Signals Operators, and Support Trades to complete our tasks. Both Signals Intelligence Specialists and Intelligence Operators then go on to take a series of additional courses directly relating to EW equipment and process. Many of our members have chosen to serve in various NATO mission around the world, but deployment either domestically or overseas is not a requirement for these positions.

Candidates must be Canadian Citizens between 16 and 57 who are prepared to undergo both physical and classroom training. Specialty training is delivered in a pattern easily matched to the availability of Post Secondary and Sr high school students. Workers in the gig economy, those whom are underemployed or are between positions have all been successful on an ongoing basis with this mixed part and full time position. Not all training must occur during summer blocks of full time service, for those who have completed their studies. Some trades which do not require a higher security clearance are open for permanent residents whom are intending continue on their path to Canadian Citizenship.
