==New Zealand== In the [[New Zealand Defence Force]], the term commandant is used for the senior officer (or commander) of garrisoned units that do not deploy and are not operational. This typically includes learning institutes such as the [[New Zealand Defence College]], the [[New Zealand Cadet Forces|New Zealand Cadet Force]], and (formerly) the [[Command and Staff College (New Zealand)|Command and Staff College]]. The title could also be used for other non-deploying units such as the Services Corrective Establishment in Burnham, or depot-level engineering units. The equivalent term for operational units is 'commander', such as commander of the Joint Force Headquarters New Zealand. Under the 2010 creation of the Training and Education Directorate, an additional position of commandant was established for the Training Institute to complement the commandant of the Defence College.
