Are there advanced training courses for Sea Cadets?
Yes. In addition to advanced training aboard naval vessels, Sea Cadets may attend advanced orientation courses, such as Airman’s School, Music School, SeaBee Indoctrination, Underwater Demolition/Seal Team training, Submarine Orientation and other courses designed to prepare cadets for leadership, either within the Sea Cadet organization or in other fields. Thanks to partial Federal funding, the cost of these trainings is generally quite reasonable (~$140/week). The cadet is responsible for travel costs and arrangements, but scholarships/sponsorships may be available to cadets in financial need in return for community service work; contact the Commanding Officer to discuss this possibility.
