Occasionally individuals, either ex-cadets, parents or otherwise, will decide to join the Cadet program as a member of the staff. The first step in doing so is to discuss your interests and options with the Commanding Officer. If the Commanding Officer agrees that you would make a suitable staff member then you must complete a volunteer screening and obtain a cadet volunteer screening card.

The screening process although fairly simple is very thorough and rigorous. You will be required to undergo an interview with the Sponsoring Committee executive, to supply character telephone references and to obtain a criminal record check with vulnerable sector screening.

In order to volunteer you must complete the Volunteer Screening Package, and obtain a police record check with vulnerable sector screening. The Record Check with vulnerable sector screening must be completed at the police station closest to where you live, and you will require a letter requesting the check from the Commanding Officer.

Once all these documents are in order and approved you will be contacted and provided a cadet volunteer screening card and at that point you will need to complete training in harrassment and abuse prevention, environmental policies, and documents to register you as a cadet Volunteer Instructor.
