NCWG Cadet Advisory Council (CAC)

Cadet Advisory Council (CAC)

Purpose

Cadet Advisory Councils have three main purposes:

1.   "Provide an organization where cadets gain leadership experience at higher organizational levels."

2.   "Aid the commanders in monitoring and implementing the Cadet Program."

3.   "Make recommendations for improving and running the Cadet Program."

Comprised of North Carolina Wing cadets, the North Carolina Wing CAC advises the North Carolina Wing Cadet Programs Directorate, and the Wing Commander on cadet-related matters.
