Assessment Fees
Air Cadet League of Canada British Columbia Provincial Committee (BCPC)
The Government of Canada through the Department of National Defence generously provides the cadet with uniforms, supervision, training courses, summer camps and most of the equipment for the program at no cost to the cadet. Thus, DND advertises the program as “free”. However, the ACL, Provincial Committees and SSCs have operating costs that are not funded by the Government

What does it cost to join?
The Cadet Program is funded by the Department of National Defence in partnership with the Air Cadet League of Canada. The civilian sponsor requires local community support to meet its obligations that include accommodations, training aids and equipment and program enhancements not otherwise provided.
