Summer Training 2026
What is Summer Training?
This is an AMAZING opportunity for you to get away, learn new skills, meet new friends from other Cadet units and develop as an Air Cadet (oh, and to have fun while doing it). This is also an important aspect of progressing your Cadet career towards future rank promotion and parade position considerations and future advanced summer training course applications (i.e. Glider Scholarship and Power Scholarship).
Which Summer Training Course Should I Apply To?
What are you interested in? Marksmanship? Music? Drill? Leadership? Aviation? Sports? Survival? There is a course for EVERYONE! Courses for Summer 2026 are available now, and there is a sign up in the Announcements channel on MS Teams!
How Do I Apply?
Check the Announcements channel of MS Teams. You must be logged into Cadet365 to complete the survey.
When is the Deadline to Apply?
10 February 2026
But I Have Other Questions...!
Please follow the chain of command and reach out to your senior cadets for more information. The best way to learn about a course is to hear it from someone who has participated in it.
