Air Training Corps (ATC) Instructors

The ATC is a volunteer youth organisation and most of our instructors are civilians freely giving their time.

The Air Training Corps (ATC) aims to train cadets in a wide range of subject not just directly RAF or military subjects. Consequently we need instructors in all sorts of topics not just aircraft, flight or military topics.

The majority of instructors with the 1070 (Diss) Air Training Corps (ATC) are civilian instructors.

Air Cadets are involved in sports, adventure training including the Duke of Edinburgh awards scheme, radio, electronics, web design and building and all sorts of topics. If you think you might have an interest that would be of use to and interest our air cadets or are simply curious about how you might help, please get in touch.

The Air Cadets web site describes the steps required to become different types of instructor:

• a civilian instructor
• a gliding instructor
• a Sergeant or Warrant Officer instructor
• a Commissioning ATC Officer

As someone who becomes responsible for youths it is a legal requirement that all our instructors undergo Police checks.
