Summer Training Info

Here is some basic information for NLCC League Cadet Orientation:

League Cadet Orientation (7 Day Module). League Cadet Orientation is the cadet’s introduction to military routine and discipline and is the cadets first step towards advancing in the League Program. Cadets spend one week learning basic Navy subjects, elementary seamanship, basic damage control, and quarter’s maintenance.  League Cadets do not have have to complete BMR training before attending.


Here is some basic information for NSCC Sea Cadet Recruit Training:
 
1. Recruit Training (Fourteen Day Module). Recruit training is the cadet’s introduction to military routine and discipline and is the cadets first step towards advancing in the Sea Cadet Program. Cadets spend two weeks learning basic Navy subjects, elementary seamanship, basic damage control, and quarter’s maintenance. Additionally, cadets participate in Physical Fitness Training. While attending Recruit Training a cadet must pass a Physical Fitness Test in order to receive credit for completing Recruit Training. Successful completion of Recruit Training is required before attending Advanced Training. It is the unit Commanding Officers responsibility to ensure cadets are prepared medically, physically and psychologically prior to attending Recruit Training. To qualify for Recruit Training a cadet must meet the below requirements.

a. Be enrolled in the NSCC program a minimum of six weeks prior to the start of Recruit Training. This time limit is established to ensure proper enrollment, opportunity to get required uniforms and opportunity to complete BMR requirements. If a new cadet can meet all these requirements in under 6 weeks, he or she can go.

b. Be age 14 prior to 1 September of the training year or be a former NLCC Cadet who is age 13 and has successfully completed NLCC Orientation Training scheduled by NHQ and is considered “mature” enough by the unit commanding officer.
 

c. Passed the Physical Fitness Test at the unit prior to attending Recruit Training.

d. Successfully complete BMR   Chapters 1, 5, 6, 9, and 10 prior to reporting to Recruit Training. These chapters will provide the cadet the requisite knowledge needed to complete recruit training. While formal completion of the BMR is best, training at the unit level on these specific chapters and sections is sufficient for meeting the prerequisites for attending Recruit Training.  Sea Cadets must complete the entire BMR to attend any Advanced trainings.  The unit commanding officers signature on the orders certifies the cadet is ready for training, which includes having completed the BMR, or has received training on these specific chapters and sections. Sea Cadets should see Instructor Ivy Francis to signup for BMR course and get testing requirements.

e. Obtain the required uniform items (Sea Bag List) and comply with directives directed by the Commanding Officer of Training Contingent (COTC)

 Summer and Advanced Training Logistics .

1. It is the parent’s responsibility to arrange transportation for their child to and from the training site. This means from the doorstep of the unit-drilling site or individual residence to the doorstep of the training site. When using commercial transportation in addition to airline or train tickets, fees for taxi or shuttle bus should be considered. As a courtesy ONLY, COTC’s may offer travel assistance to and from local airports, train stations or bus stations.

2. Do not purchase Non-Refundable Airline Tickets. Training evolutions are dependent upon escort availability, host site accommodations, and host training site security measures in effect at the time of training. Changes to non-refundable airline tickets incur a penalty that averages $75 to $100. NHQ will not reimburse for these penalties, regardless of reason.

3. Some commercial air carriers do not allow under aged children to travel unescorted by an adult. If parents or units arrange for unaccompanied commercial travel for cadets be sure to ask if the carrier will honor your arrangement.

4. Parents must be reminded to respect security when entering military bases. Most NSCC training is conducted on military bases. Base security personnel are very sensitive to visitors and are very focused on their particular base security measures. These security measures pertain to cadets/adults attending training evolutions on the Summer Training Schedule and “Locally Arranged Training”.
