U.S. Army Cadet Corps Hiring Summer Staff

[COL Land]

The U.S. Army Cadet Corps (USAC) is a community-based, Army-centric, Cadet program similar to the Civil Air Patrol (CAP), Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) and Young Marines (YM).    USAC purchased the campus of the former Millersburg Military Institute, in Bourbon County, Kentucky, in September 2008.  Since then, nearly 1000 young Cadets have passed through the gates of the National Cadet Training Center (NCTC) to experience Army life firsthand. 

We offer Basic Cadet Training (2 weeks - two sessions), Basic Leader Course (3 weeks), Cadet NCO Course (3 weeks), Cadet Ranger Challenge (3 weeks), Cadet Ranger School (3 weeks), Cadet MP Academy (2 weeks) and much more.   Further, we will be standing-up Forest Hill Military Academy during August, 2012, allowing for a residential military school environment for 7-12th grades, using the USAC training format.

Though fundamentally similar to JROTC, we are a "career exploration" program, rather than a "citizenship program."   As such, our program is very focused on providing young people with a realistic and challenging exposure to military life, with no obligation to serve. 

USAC has experienced such growth that the need exists to hire a small number of personnel to support the USAC Annual Training (AT) Cadre.   Therefore, the following opportunities exist:

SUPPORT STAFF:


Opportunities exist for 6-8 individuals, for up to nine weeks during the summer (mid-June through mid-August), with the following qualifications:

a. An active duty, reserve/National guard or retired Soldier of any rank, or ROTC Cadet (not JROTC), with a solid understanding of the Army culture, traditions and training methodologies. The applicant must possess, and be authorized to wear, a uniform based on current military status (Active, Reserve, National Guard, Retired, ROTC Cadet or Individual Ready Reserve (IRR)), or must submit an application for membership in USAC. Active, Army Reserve or Army National Guard Army personnel will be temporarily appointed to their current Army military rank within USAC, wearing USAC modifying insignia. Individuals with experience in another service may be considered on a case-by-case basis. CAP and NSCC personnel are not authorized to wear their programs' uniform in support of this mission.

b. Able to be available on-site for the entire period of training between 18 Jun - 10 Aug 11. We maintain a very high OP-TEMPO. There is no flexibility on the dates.

c. Physically capable of keeping up with the demands of a very strenuous program.

d. Age 21 or over with a Valid driver's license. Extraordinary applicants who are under 21 may be considered.

e. Able to pass a background check.

f. Ability to pass an on-site Cadet Protection Policy Training course.

g. Ability to support the training of Cadets, based on past experience in the U.S. Army and, preferably, a solid understanding of the importance of Cadetting.

This position will provide room and board and a small stipend, based on experience. This is an ideal opportunity for a young ROTC Cadet or ARNG/USAR Soldier who wishes to gain additional experience.

The above position will NOT be "pushing recruits" in a Drill Sergeant role. These positions are support personnel to assist with administration, operations, transportation, supply, etc.


DRILL SERGEANTS:


Opportunities exist for 4-6 Soldiers, for up to nine weeks during the summer (mid-June through mid-August), with the following qualifications:

a. A qualified Drill Sergeant of any rank. Active, Army Reserve, Army National Guard Army or retired personnel will be temporarily appointed to their current Army military rank within USAC, wearing USAC modifying insignia.

b. Preferably available to be on-site for the entire period of training between 18 Jun - 10 Aug 11; however, availability of increments of not less than three weeks will be considered.

c. Physically capable of keeping up with the demands of a very strenuous program.

d. Able to pass a background check.

e. Ability to pass an on-site Cadet Protection Policy Training course.

f. A strong desire to support the training of Cadets, based on past experience in the U.S. Army and, preferably, a solid understanding of the importance of Cadetting.
