Cadets are part of a movement. Striving and succeeding to empower youth in becoming the leaders of tomorrow is what this program is all about. If you are interested in learning about aerospace, aviation, sports, marksmanship, effective speaking or be exposed to other types of training such as first aid or navigation, this program is for you.

JOIN THE CADETS

Cadets learn what it takes to be a leader and the best part is they get to do it with their peers alongside them. Do you or your child want to learn a new instrument? Perhaps challenge yourself in new and innovative ways, like learning how to fly a plane? In partnership with the Canadian Armed Forces, we here at the ACLC promise to be behind your child’s growth every step of the way. We understand that cost should never be an issue for the growth of our youth and we want to give you an all access-pass to opportunities unlike any other youth organization. There is little to no program costs to you to join this movement!

JOIN THE CADETS

Our Sponsoring Committee Chairs and Screening and Registration Coordinators are responsible for screening and selecting the best volunteers to join our team based on our organizational needs. Our screening practices help fulfill the obligations at the program level but also are committed to ensuring we keep the health and safety of our youth top of mind. There are many ways to get involved and we are excited that you are considering propelling our initiatives forward.

Major-General (Ret’d) Ken C. Lett has donated $1,020,000 to the Air Cadet League of Canada which represents the largest sum ever donated to the ACL in the history of the League. The purpose of the gift is to support the creation of an academic scholarship fund for air cadets. Specifically, scholarships will be named the “K.C. Lett Scholarships” and will be awarded for postsecondary enrolment in an aviation related program at an accredited educational institution or for continuation flying at a certified flight school. The selection criteria for these awards will include individual performance in the cadet program, secondary school academic performance, and community involvement. Annual disbursements will be based on the annual investment income derived from the fund.  Fifty percent (50%) of disbursements will be awarded to air cadets resident in Alberta.
