This is an unofficial page that is not intended to represent in any way the policies or procedures of either the DND, the CAF, or Cadet Leagues of Canada.

This is not a CAF page. The page is maintained on behalf of Squadron local committee for 561 RCACS Truly unique to the Cadet Program is that it offers experiences you cannot get anywhere else! The Cadet Program stimulates an interest in the Sea, Army and Air activities of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF). To this end, we offer dynamic training in a supportive and efficient environment where change is a positive and essential element. The mission of the Cadet Program is to contribute to the development and preparation of youth for the transition to adulthood, enabling them to meet the challenges of modern society, through a dynamic, community-based program. The vision of the Cadet Program is a relevant, credible and proactive youth development organization, offering the program of choice for Canada’s youth, preparing them to become the leaders of tomorrow through a set of fun, challenging, well-organized and safe activities. We further commit to attain this vision by living shared Canadian and military values, paying particular attention to:

Loyalty, the expression of our collective dedication to the ideals of the Cadet Movement to all its members;

Professionalism, the accomplishment of all tasks with pride and diligence;

Mutual Respect, the treatment of others with dignity and equality; and

Integrity, the courage and commitment to exemplify trust, sincerity and honesty.

Flying high on knowledge? What's a tomato kitchen timer got to do with it? 🤔 Well, buckle up for Ground School, cadets! We're not just landing all the facts, but also bringing the secret jet-fuel to studying like a pro - think ninja note-taking skills and study techniques that'll make your brain go 'Whoa, I'm flying through this!' 😎 And, oh yeah, about that tomato... 🍅

What's in the box?
Join the Nelson Air Cadets and find out about our Flight Sim programme. Learn to fly 'by the numbers' and get your wings after a 15 hour course (and get to do all sorts of other fun stuff too!).
