Cadet Training

Throughout your training as an Army Cadet a lot of the things you do will be aimed at helping you achieve your next star level in the Army Proficiency Certificate (APC), a specially designed cadet syllabus. There is six levels of the APC all containing the same subjects, but each level you go up becomes slightly more in depth and advanced.

The ultimate course as a cadet is the Master Cadet Course. This is held at the Cadet Training Centre and is the highest level of the APC you can achieve.

When you complete a level of the APC you will be awarded a badge to show your achievement. These badges are shown below.
