2. - Serial 1209 - A8 Canadian Armoured Corps Training Centre - authorized effective 15 February 1941, disbanded effective 1 September 1942 - localization: Camp Borden, Ontario. A8 Canadian Armoured Corps Training Centre, A9 Canadian Armoured Corps Training Centre (Serial 1210), and the Canadian Armoured Corps Training Group (Serial 561), were amalgamated to form Serial 1285 - A33 Canadian Armoured Corps Training Establishment, effective 1 September 1942 - localization: Camp Borden, Ontario. A33 Canadian Armoured Corps Training Establishment, was reorganized and redesignated The Royal Canadian Armoured Corps School, effective 1 October 1946 - localization: Camp Borden, Ontario.
