AC

A new member of the Air Cadet Program is referred to as an "Air Cadet" (AC) at the time of enrollment. After the cadet satisfies specific nationally prescribed standards, they are promoted to higher ranks. To guarantee that every cadet who receives a rank promotion has the same fundamental skills or comparable experience, that all cadets are evaluated using the same criteria—the successful completion of squadron training—and that all cadets are given an equal chance to progress, specific criteria for each rank have been established.
