Objectives
The Aims of
the Air Training Corps are:
-
To promote and encourage among young people a practical interest in
aviation and the Royal Air Force.
-
To provide training which will be useful in the Services and civilian
life.
-
To foster the spirit of adventure and develop qualities of leadership and
good citizenship
-
1188 Squadron's
objective is to fulfil the aims of the ATC by providing training that is
both rewarding and fun! We do this by:
-
Following the ATC's aviation
ground training syllabus which is supplemented by visits to operational
RAF stations. Cadets also get the opportunity to go flying and
gliding.
-
Providing training in military
and life skills. We regularly hold events at Ministry of Defence
training establishments and the ATC syllabus covers topics such as
presentation skills which will be useful in any future career.
-
Having a busy adventure
training programme. Cadets can do things such as camping, hill
walking, canoeing and rock climbing.
-
Providing leadership training
and giving cadets the opportunity to practice these skills through the
rank structure.
-
Having an active community
service programme, participating in charity events and helping out at
local events.
