Cadet Professional Development Training
One of the major advantages of the ROTC program is the opportunity for cadets to attend actual Army training courses during the summer vacation months. Attendance at one or more of these courses has multiple benefits for the ROTC student. Cadets are exposed to a unique learning experience. They learn firsthand how the Army trains. They live in an actual Army environment and gain an appreciation for the people with whom they will be working during their period of service. Students are selected for this training on a merit basis (leadership and academic and physical performance) from volunteers wishing to take advantage of this opportunity. The following list describes the two most popular types of off campus training programs. Cadets are not paid to attend these training courses; however, travel, lodging, and meals are provided.
