What You Get
The training you will receive is broken down into modules. On the completion of each stage you achieve a qualification, the details of which are entered in your records. Some modules also attract an Air Cadet Organisation award issued by Headquarters Air Cadets and carrying the Commandant Air Cadets' signature.

The basic module, ACP31 vol 6, is a required part of recruit training for all Air Cadets. It's one of your first steps on the way to becoming fully trained. |
| The completion of the VHF/UHF module is marked by the award of the Operator's Certificate and enables cadets to operate unit radio equipment unsupervised. Such cadets are also permitted to directly support local charitable and public events as part of the ACO's work in the community. |
 |
| Cadets who complete the HF operator are awarded the Operator's certificate and are able to operate the unit's long-range HF equipment unsupervised. | |
 |
Successful completion of the whole
scheme leads to the award of the Communicator badge and the
Communicator certificate. Only about 100 of these are
awarded each year making them quite prestigious and highly
valued. Sussex Wing has won more of these than all
other REGIONS as well as individual wings! |
