Training Leaders of Cadets is the premiere venue for Cadet Programs Officers to learn how to become better mentors of cadets and more effective managers of cadet squadrons. The 3-course program is a component of the Cadet Programs Officer Specialty Track. To foster collegial discussions among adult volunteers, cadets are prohibited from attending.

In an effort to expand the offerings for TLC, National Headquarters will begin offering regularly scheduled TLC-Basic & TLC-Intermediate courses, offered virtually. These courses will be in addition to the locally offered courses, hosted by each wing. These virtual courses are just another way to expand the accessibility of TLC. We will soon begin offering 1 course per month, alternating TLC-Basic one month and TLC-Intermediate the next. Find out more! |

TLC remains current for 48 months. Because the Cadet Program cannot succeed without adult leadership, every cadet unit shall have at least two members who have completed a TLC course (any level) within the last 48 months. Although, it is ideal that all adult members who work with cadets have taken TLC. (see CAPR 60-1, 2.3.2.4)
If you have any questions about how to keep your TLC credit current, please contact Elizabeth Hornbach. |
