The Air Cadet Experience

As an Air Training Corps Cadet you are a member of one of the Country's premier youth organisations. But what does it offer you?

The Air Cadet Experience sets out what is available to you. Each year it enables you to have a set of goals for yourself based around the key activities for you to have a go at. What those challenges are will depend upon your age and what stage of your training you are at.

These challenges should go on through your entire ATC career. If you stay until you are aged 18 you should have been able to take part at some level in each area of training. You will leave the Air Training Corps with a wide range of experiences and some useful qualifications and have had a good time doing it.

Are you on target to meet the challenges being offered? Is your Squadron on target to offer you the opportunities?
