STEP TWO:
Cadet Protection Program Training (CPPT)

Even though Squadron 5 is a senior only squadron, we occasionally do come in contact with cadets. Cadet Protection Program Training is a required element of Level One and is designed to introduce new senior members, Cadet Sponsor Members and cadets 18 and older to CAP's Cadet Protection policies.

CPPT helps ensure a healthy and safe environment for cadets while providing the foundation for a professional climate and the highest standards of behavior of all our members in leadership positions.

This training is mandatory for all senior members, Cadet Sponsor Members and cadets 18 and older. This training takes most people less than two hours to complete.

STEP THREE:
Operations Security (OPSEC) Awareness Training

By completing the online Operations Security (OPSEC) Awareness Training, you will know how to handle sensitive information concerning our missions, our capabilities and our partner agencies.

The OPSEC awareness training also allows CAP to validate to our partner agencies that members whom we entrust with sensitive information have the necessary training and have agreed to protect that information.

This training is mandatory for all CAP senior members and Cadet Sponsor Members. It is an online only course. The training takes most people less than 20 minutes and concludes with an opportunity to agree to protect sensitive information. This is called a “Non Disclosure Agreement” (NDA) and each member’s agreement will be recorded electronically in their membership records. This NDA will be required before a member can access sensitive information or participate in certain missions.
