This portal is designed for Staff Cadets and offers leadership and development activities.
 

Facebook Page – Cadet Learning

This Facebook page is designed to share the latest news on the activities available on extranet and maximize participation. On this page, surveys are also posted online to find out what cadets think about their favourite activities.   Throughout the summer, the page will follow cadet summer training as a CTC page would.
