URGENT: Virtual Training

November 15th, 2020

Due to the new restrictions, we have moved to Virtual Training for at least the next few weeks to continue our training year. Our Virtual Training platform will be Discord – this is a virtual chatroom platform that many cadets will already have accounts for and access to.

If your cadet does not have an account for this platform already, they will need to create one to be able to participate.

Here is a video with instructions on how to join in more detail.

We will not be doing any classes this week – November 16th and 17th – to take time and assist everyone as we build the server and get all of their roles sorted. We will have officers online Monday and Tuesday night starting at 1830 to help you and your cadets get set up.

There is a special part for parents in the server as well, so we do encourage you to join in on your own account.

Take care,

CIV Elliott
