NO MORE CDNs for SVOP and SDV-BS (MED A3)!!!!

 
Transport Canada no longer requires participants for the SVOP and SDV-BS (MED A3) courses to get a CDN (Candidate Document Number). This also applies MBFA and other MED courses. However, the CDN is useful if you want to take your marine career beyond small vessel operation.
