Training at camp uses small unit tactical training as the vehicle for evaluation cadet potential to server as a commissioned officer. Training is sequenced at Advanced Camp in a logical, building-block manner. The cadet regiments report to camp on separate dates. The training covers the basic military skills that are needed for the tactical exercises at individual and squad levels. Training culminates with tactics instruction at the platoon level.
Evaluation is constant and begins shortly after the cadet arrives.
The tactical officers and NCOs advise, coach, and ultimately, render an official evaluation of the cadet's potential to serve as an officer. Training requirements for Advanced Camp are located in Cadet Command Regulation 145-3, Precommissioning Training and Leadership Development and the U.S. Army Advance Camp Program of Instructions.
