NR-13.241 - July 26, 2013
The Department of National Defence (DND) and Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) wish to inform members of the public that we will soon be launching our newly restructured website, www.forces.gc.ca, based on the Government of Canada’s Standard on Web Usability.
Through user testing, we have refined the new layout and design to make it easier for you to find the information you need online. We have eliminated outdated content and reorganized pages based on what users are trying to do or find on the site, rather than replicating the DND/CAF organizational structure.
The site will look different, but the information you need will still be available. If you have bookmarked DND/CAF web pages, these will need to be updated.
Content under the new top menu will be organized into six main categories: Jobs, Operations, Doing Business, Honours & History, Education & Training, and CAF Community.
The footer will have four main sections: About us, Contact us, News and Stay connected.
To assist you in finding the information you are looking for, we recommend that you start by browsing the topics in the top menu and in the footer. You can also use the Search bar located at the top right hand side of the site.
If you are still having difficulty finding what you are looking for please contact us at web.services@forces.gc.ca, and we will gladly assist you during this transition period.
The following tables include the new links for some of our most frequently used pages and RSS feeds. These links will be effective once the launch process is completed by July 29, 2013.
