520 |aIn November 2012, the Influence Activities Task Force (IATF) hosted the third iteration of the Civil-Military Seminar at Canadian Forces Base (CFB) Kingston. Seminar attendees included representatives of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and other government partners (GPs) involved in Comprehensive Approach (CA) operations. Objectives of the seminar were (a) to provide an opportunity for NGOs, GPs, and CAF personnel to interact in a CA context, and (b) to establish/reinforce professional networks and relationships between representatives of these organizations. Survey data collected from 21 voluntary seminar attendees—10 CAF and 11 civilians (9 NGOs and 2 GPs)—revealed that the seminar was successful in achieving its objectives. Overall, both military and civilian participants were satisfied with the format and organization of the seminar and perceived it to be a useful professional development activity that provided sufficient opportunities for learning and for relationship building. Although both CAF and civilian participants reported that the seminar impacted their perception and understanding of the CA, the impact (i.e., change in perception) was greatest for civilian respondents, the majority of whom initially indicated having less familiarity with the CA concept. The seminar also appeared to facilitate interorganizational trust, particularly for CAF participants, whose perceptions of civilian organizations improved significantly over the course of the seminar. Suggestions for improving future iterations of the seminar are discussed.
