VOLUNTEERING
Over
20 years of age? Want a challenge where you learn new skills, develop existing
skills you have already while gaining qualifications?
Part
of the strength of staff in the Air Cadet Organisation is that they come from
a wide range of backgrounds and experience. You do not have to have a
background in aviation or military experience. You need not be an athlete but
being a staff member will keep you as active as you wish. You will need to
have personal skills including maturity, reliability, and patience. As a
staff member you will need to be responsible for young persons, you will be
supported through training to give you all the necessary skills required to
be a staff member in the Royal Air Force Air Cadets.
|
Joining as Squadron staff you will be become a
Civilian Instructor responsible for supervision of cadets. You will also
assist in delivering a training program. If you require you can attend
courses on subjects to improve your knowledge, many of the courses will be
free of charge to Civilian Instructors and can be used in every day life. Civilian Instructors are key members of
the Squadron staff without which the Squadron will not be able to be fully
effective. If you choose you can apply to become a Non-Commissioned Officer
in the Air Training Corps or a commissioned officer in the Royal Air Force
Volunteer Reserve (Training Branch). Rising through the ranks like the
regular Royal Air Force you will be able to claim up to 28 days pay per
year when on key activities.
