YOUR NEXT THREE STEPS
Get ready for your first meetings
A friendly starting point for new cadets: your squadron, uniforms, and learning the basics.
Connect with your squadron
Ask your squadron when and where to arrive, what to bring, and who will help you get started. Local meeting instructions come from your unit.
Get familiar with CAP
Use CAP’s New Cadet Guide as your starting reference. You can learn the terminology as you go; you do not need to know it all before your first meeting.
Take your next step
Ask your unit about uniform instructions and your first learning goals. Use these guides to find the official references.
