Encampment
Encampment challenges you. It pushes you so you’ll grow. Are you self-disciplined? Can you lead? Can you truly work as a team? These are some of the questions the cadre will help you answer for yourself as you participate in awesome, hands-on activities and tours. Specifically, our goal is to inspire you to
• develop leadership skills,
• learn about aviation, space, and technology,
• commit to a habit of regular exercise, and
• live the Core Values.
As cadets of the U.S. Air Force Auxiliary, your training will emphasize not only leadership and character, but fitness and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) as you explore career opportunities in those areas and so much more.
Financial Assistance
Help with tuition and uniform expenses is available. Please see the Cadet Encampment Assistance Program page. Winter CEAP applications open 1 November.
Encampment Curricula
All training materials are available online.
Upcoming Webinar Training
Training is available for cadet cadre applicants / selectees, and to adult staff. See the encampment webinar page for information.
