  • Review of the Australian Defence Force Cadets (ADFC) Scheme
    Review of the Australian Defence Force Cadets (ADFC) Scheme November 2008 Canberra 20 November 2008 Air Chief Marshal A.G. Houston, AC, AFC Chief of the Defence Force Russell Offices RUSSELL ACT 2600 Dear Air Chief Marshal Houston, In September 2008 you commissioned a review into the Australian Defence Force Cadets (ADFC) to examine the accountability, probity and transparency of the management of the ADFC to determine clear lines of responsibility and to ensure that the ADFC is achieving its specific objectives in an efficient and effective manner. The Review Panel is pleased to present its report. In its considerations, the Panel has examined over 200 written submissions, conducted two focus groups, visited a number of cadet units and schools and consulted widely. The Panel was limited in the scope and depth of its investigation by time. As a result, we have not addressed each of the terms of reference in detail; but rather we have developed a broad strategic roadmap to guide future development of the ADFC. We obtained much value from the many previous reports and studies conducted into the ADFC. We found the Topley Review to be particularly valuable in this regard; and had its recommendations been implemented comprehensively, the ADFC would be better positioned than it is today. Major reforms are required to achieve the accountability and transparency required of the ADFC. That comment echoes those of the Topley Report’s observations which, like many of its other findings, remain valid to this day. The Review has received generous and valuable support from the Services, Defence, the ADFC community and from the Commonwealth, State and independent agencies interested in the wellbeing of young people.

  • Australian Army Cadets
    Defence Youth Program Fact Sheet Australian Army Cadets Program Summary The Australian Army Cadets (AAC) is a leading national youth organisation with the character and values of the Australian Army, founded on a strong community partnership, fostering and supporting an on-going interest in the Australian Army. The AAC program comprises approximately 16000 youth, led by over 1000 volunteer adults, and supported by approximately 200 serving Army members and Defence staff across Australia. The AAC provides opportunities for young people from the ages of 12 (if they turn 13 in the calendar year in which they join) to 19yrs 11 months to develop Courage, Initiative, Teamwork and Respect. The exciting AAC program allows youth to undertake activities such as abseiling, watermanship, navigation, radio communications, survival and bush skills, first aid and many other challenging activities. The AAC is embarking on a transformation path that will soon see other innovative subjects taught and practiced in the field, including robotics, advanced communications, cyber-skills, and engineering. Army Cadets undertake a number of training events each year, including field camps and military skills courses. The best cadets get opportunities to test themselves in a national adventure training activity, or compete against other State and Territory teams in the Regimental Sergeant Major – Army’s Drill Competition or the Chief of Army’s Combined Team Challenge. Aspects of the AAC program also contribute to qualifying for the Duke of Edinburgh Award. A strength of the AAC is its diversity, inclusiveness and its community spirit. Detailed program information is available at: Public Website: https://www.armycadets.gov.au/ CadetNet: Department of Defence CadetNet Version 0.1: 29/08/2016 .

The ADFC aspires to be Australia’s leading youth development organisation recognised by the community as developing youth with a sense of purpose, responsibility, respect of self and others, leadership ability and a commitment to voluntary service. As an ADFC Cadet, young Australians are able to take part in adventurous, fulfilling and educational activities in a military setting. The Australian Defence Force Cadets (ADFC) comprises the Australian Navy Cadets (ANC), the Australian Army Cadets (AAC) and the Australian Air Force Cadets (AAFC) The opportunities provided through the ADFC are made possible because of the thousands of qualified adult volunteer officers and instructors operating in cadet units all over Australia. The ADFC is strongly supported by the Australian Defence Force (ADF). Serving military personnel work hand in hand with the Navy, Army and Air Force Cadets to support ADFC activities. For many young people, participation in the ADF Cadets is the first voluntary step towards recruitment in the permanent forces or reserve forces. For those who choose to pursue non-military careers, they leave Cadets with skills and attributes that set them up for life.

Craig Stockings February 2006 ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to provide a general history of the army cadet movement in Australia from 1866 to 2004 by tracing the interactions between four fundamental forces that have stood as its foundation for almost 140 years. In various guises military, educational, social, and financial factors are the pillars on which the cadet movement has always rested. Over time the balance and relative dominance of each has determined the shape and state of the cadet organisation and will continue to do so in the future.
