Training for the 2025 Encampment Begins

Forty-eight cadets and 17 adult members of the Civil Air Patrol from units around New England met at Bridgewater State University on Saturday to kick off planning for the 2025 Encampment. For cadets, the training included two tracks: non-commissioned officer (NCO) and officer. The NCOs focused on defining their responsibilities and reviewing Encampment standard operating procedures. The cadets also focused on the appropriate use of training intensity.

The officer track focused on the “why” behind Encampment policies and regulations. They also discussed mission command and command intent, which are leadership philosophies intended to teach cadets about independent problem-solving.

Save the date: This year’s Encampment will be July 26-Aug. 2. More information about how to register is coming in the spring.
