Experienced Cadre provide individual training and mentorship. Assignments depend on the Cadet’s performance, maturity, interests and readiness. Cadre supervise the work and retain responsibility for training.

TRAINING & MENTORSHIP

Learn to Lead.
Help Others Grow.

Student Instructors and Demonstrators

Assist CFLC instructors, demonstrate individual skills and support practical exercises under Cadre supervision. Develop clear instructions, preparation and the ability to reinforce standards.

Direct Leadership Experience

Mentor other Challengers and practice teamwork, communication and responsibility. Individual coaching helps each participant build on the leadership skills learned in CBT and CFLC.

Career-interest Assignments

Depending on qualifications, maturity and program needs, approved support roles may include Basic Training, medical training support, operations or public affairs. Discuss a proposed placement with Admissions before enrolling.

Placement and Duration

CFLC graduation is the required foundation. Selection and duties are based on demonstrated performance and maturity; participation is not an automatic staff appointment.

The current schedule lists two-week sessions. A Cadet may request both consecutive sessions for a four-week experience, subject to placement approval and available spaces. Review each session’s current tuition and dates before enrolling.
