Concept of Training

6. Based on the aims of NCC, the Organisation has laid down Training Syllabi for
the cadets. The syllabi for the Junior Division Cadets covers a period of two years and for
Senior Division it is three years. Except for minor variations, the syllabus is similar for
both Boy and Girl cadets. The training year is wef 01 Apr to 31 March. Training
schedules planned for cadets ensure that the optimum benefits of the organisation reach
maximum number of cadets.

7. On successful completion of the laid down syllabi, cadets of Junior Division are
eligible for ‘A’ certificate examination and cadets of Senior Division for ‘B’ & ‘C’
certificate examinations. NCC ‘A’ certificate examination is conducted by OC units and
‘B’ & ‘C’ certificate examinations by Gp Cdrs and State DDsG respectively, for the
cadets who have completed requisite number of periods and camps during their training.

8. The training activities of Trg ‘A’ can be broadly classified under the following
heads:-

(a) Institutional Training.

(b) Camp Training.
(c) Attachment Training (Service Units).
(d) Air Wing Training.
(e) Community Development.
(f) Youth Exchange Programme.

Institutional Training
9. This training is mostly carried out in schools and colleges by the cadets. In
addition, depending upon the type of wing, basic knowledge of that service is imparted to
the cadets e.g gliding and powered flying for Air Wing cadets and boat pulling and
sailing for Naval Wing cadets. Common syllabus consists of 70% and special to services
subjects 30 % of the entire syllabus for Army wings. However for Naval and Air Wings,
the Common syllabus is 30% and specialist syllabus is 70%.

Camp Training
10. Camp training constitutes the most important part of NCC training. Every cadet
in the NCC is expected to attend at least two camps during one’s tenure to complete the
Training Syllabi. Therefore, nearly 50 percent of the enrolled strength gets this
opportunity every year. In Camps, the young cadets get the thrill and joy of outdoor and
community living as they are made to live under canvas/camp conditions and also follow
a rugged but interesting routine. Camps also help in developing camaraderie, team-work,
leadership qualities, self-confidence, self-reliance and dignity of labour among cadets.
This contributes greatly towards promoting national integration. The various camps
conducted by the NCC are as follows:-

(a) Annual Training Camps (ATC). These are held within the State under
the aegis of respective NCC Directorates. The camps are of 12 days for senior
boys/girls and 10 days duration for junior boys/girls. 50% of the enrolled
strength undergoes the camps. In a year, approx 6 lac cadets undergo the camps.

(b) Centrally Organised Camps (COC). These camps are of an all

India nature and are planned by HQ DGNCC in consultation with the Directorates
nominated to conduct them. Selected cadets, as per the vacancies allotted to each
Directorate, participate in these camps. The following types of centrally organised
camps are conducted: -

(i) Leadership Camps. These camps are conducted on an all India

basis. There are four Advance Leadership Camps (ALC), one each for SD,
JD, SD Naval Wing boys and SW Girls. Three Basic Leadership Camps
are held, one each for SD boys, SW and JW Girls. A total of 1350 cdts
attend these camps.

(ii) Vayu Sainik Camp. This Centrally Organised Camp is

organised for Air Wing Cadets. 600 cadets (420 boys + 180 girls) from all
Directorates attend the camp. VSC is generally conducted in the month
of Oct. This year it is being conducted from 18 –29 Oct 05 at Bangalore.

(iii) Nau Sainik Camp. This Centrally organised Naval camp is

conducted annually for selected Naval Wing Cadets. Boat pulling, regatta
and sailing competitions are the main attractions of this camp. 560 cadets
(400 boys + 160 girls) attend the camp. It is conducted during the months
of Oct/Nov.

(iv) Rock Climbing Camps. Eight rock climbing camps are held
each year to expose the cadets to the basics of rock climbing and to
 inculcate spirit of adventure. Four of these camps are held at Gwalior in
MP and other four camps at Nayyar Dam near Trivandrum in Kerala. A
total of 1080 cadets attend the camps.

(v) National Integration Camps (NIC). These camps are

conducted on an all India basis and help bridge the cultural gap among
various states of India. 37 such camps are conducted every year. In
addition, we conduct NICs at remote and forward areas to promote
national integration. Special NICs are being conducted regularly at Leh,
Srinagar, North Eastern Region and at Port Blair.

(vi) Thal Sainik Camp (TSC). Two TSCs are conducted at RD

Parade ground, Delhi Cantt every year i.e. one for SD/JD boys and other
for SW/JW girls. Points scored by NCC Dtes during various competitions
held during the camp contribute towards Republic Day Banner. 640 Boy
and 640 Girl cadets take part in this camp held in Sep/Oct.

(vii) Republic Day Camp (RDC) and Prime Minister’s (PM’s)

Rally. Republic Day Camp is a prestigious camp inaugurated by the
Vice President of India and visited by Raksha Mantri, Raksha Rajya
Mantri, Chief Minister of Delhi, the three Service Chiefs and other
dignitaries. During the Camp, a Horse Show and three Cultural
Programmes are held wherein important dignitaries are invited as Chief
Guests. The camp culminates in the Prime Minister’s Rally on 27 January
every year which showcases all the activities of NCC. In addition, groups
of NCC cadets meet the President of India and the Prime Minister over tea
on separate days.

Attachment Training

11. NCC cadets are given an opportunity to live and work in regular service units in
the form of Attachment Training. Allocation of vacancies for attachment to various Army
Command HQs is done by the Army HQs. Every year 440 officers and 20,000 cadets
are attached with various Army units. This includes, approx 560 SW cadets who are
attached with various Centres/Depots where lady officers are posted. The attachment
training is for approx 15 days duration.

12. Attachment Military Hospitals. 1000 Senior Wing Girl cadets are attached
with various Military Hospitals every year.
13. IMA Attachment. 120 SD cadets are attached with IMA for trg every year.

14. ATT OTA. 48 SW girl cadets are attached with OTA, Chennai for trg every
year.

Air Wing Training

15. NCC Air Wing was established in 1950. At present, there are 58 Air Sqns i.e. 47
Flying Sqns and 11 Technical Sqns. Air Sqns cover all State and Union Territories except
J&K.47,578 SD Cadets and 11,489 JD Cadets are on its roll.

16. The major objective of the Air Wing training is to create interest amongst the
youth of the country in aviation activites. In the flying Sqns, besides normal training,
cadets are imparted training in Gliding/Microlite activities. The cadets are imparted basic
theoretical knowledge in aviation subjects like aerodynamics, navigation, airmanship,
meteorology and aero engine. The following practical training is also imparted: -

(a) Gliding. Gliding is the most appropriate and economic way of

bringing aviation within the reach of a large number of cadets. As of today only
18 gliders are serviceable out of 40 Gliders. An Air Sqn has to achieve a target of
1000 launches by gliders and 200 hours of flying in Microlite in a year.

(b) Microlite Flying. Microlite Flying has been introduced in NCC as an

adventure activity with a view to give air experience/trg to the NCC Cadets
(SD/SW) of Air Wing. A total of 60 Zen-Air Microlites have been ordered with
M/S Agni Aero Sports Aviation Academy (P) Ltd out of which 46 have been
delivered and 14 are to be delivered soon.

(c) Power Glider. There is a proposal to introduce Power Gliding in the

NCC. This has been agreed to in principle in the APC.
(d) Aeromodelling. Aeromodelling is the best way to demonstrate and
understand how the forces of aerodynamics work on a flying wing (aerofoil).
Aeromodelling is a vital link between the theory and practical flying training.
Aeromodelling is divided in to two general categories of static and dynamic
aeromodelling. In static aeromodelling, non-flying type aeromodels are made to a
specific similar scale of the actual aeroplanes. In dynamic aeromodelling, the
aeroplanes are made to fly with the help of small engine fixed on it or without it
depending on whether the aeromodeller wants to display his skill on a power
model or a gliding model. In any case, both types involve controlling through
radio control. There is another type of non- control dynamic aeromodelling,
where a powered aeromodel attached to a string is made to perform various
manoeuvres.

(e) Attachment Training. The main aim of the Attachment Training is to

familiarize Air Wing NCC Officers and Cadets about working of Air force
Stations / Estts. Every year 20 ANOs and 200 SD Cadets are attached to various
Air Force Stations / Estts for four weeks. During their training, intensive training
on air subjects is given to the cadets.

(f) Courses. Every year one Pre-commission and one Refresher course
for senior Division NCC Offrs and two Pre-commission and two Refresher
courses for Junior Division NCC Offrs are conducted. The following courses are
conducted for ANOs at AFAC, Coimbatore: -

(i) Pre-Commission (JD) Course - 04 weeks

(ii) Pre-Commission (SD) Course - 12 Weeks(3weeks in
Kamptee
& 9 week at AFAC)
(iii) Refresher Course (JD) - 04 Weeks
(iv) Refresher Course (SD) - 04 weeks
 (g) Attachment Training at AFA, Dundigal. Every year 38 SD & 12 SW
Cadets from all NCC Dtes are attached to Air Force Academy, Dundigal for 13
days twice a year in the month of Jun/Jul and Oct.

(h) Vayu Sainik Camp. A combined annual training camp known as

‘Vayu Sainik Camp’ is held every year. 420 SD Cadets and 180 SW cadets attend
the camp. This year the camp is being conducted at Bangalore from 18 Oct to 29
Oct 2005 at Air Force Stn, Jalhalli, Bangalore.

Social Service and Community Development

17. NCC has adopted community development activities with the aim of imbibing
amongst cadets selfless service to the community, dignity of labour, importance of self
help, need to protect the environment and to assist weaker sections of the society in their
upliftment. This was envisaged through programmes involving adult education, tree
plantation, blood donation, visit to Old Age Homes, slum clearance, village upliftment
and various other social schemes. Some of the major activities of NCC cadets are:-

(a) Tree Plantation. NCC cadets plant saplings and look after them in
conjunction with the concerned State Departments. This year during the NCC
fortnight planned on the occasion of NCC Day, all cadets planted a sapling each.

(b) Blood Donation. Cadets donate blood as voluntary service whenever

needed by Hospital/Red Cross. Last year all State Directorates carried out Blood
Donation Drive throughout the country on NCC fortnight from 15 Nov –30 Nov
04 on the occasion of NCC Day.

( c) Old Age Homes. Old Age Homes in the country are partronised and
regularly visited by NCC cadets.

(d) Adult Education. NCC cadets visit remote areas, villages and
underdeveloped areas to emphasise the need for education and to assist in the
conduct of the Adult Education Programmes.

 (f) Disaster Relief. NCC has always extended its helping hand during natural
and other calamities and accidents. Over the years, NCC cadets have rendered
outstanding service during floods, earthquakes, cyclones, tragic train accidents
and provided the healing touch in riot affected areas. Their response to situations
like the Orissa Super Cyclone, floods in Andhra Pradesh and West Bengal and
Earth Quake relief operations and soothing tempers after the riots in Gujarat have
been commended upon by one and all. Recently, NCC cadets actively assistated
in the relief operations during the Tsunami Disaster. The significant contribution
by NCC were widely acclaimed by one & all.

Youth Exchange Programme (YEP)

18. The aim of YEP is a country to country exchange of cadets belonging to

NCC/equivalent Govt /Youth Organisations of friendly countries and participation in
NCC activities of the host country to create an increased awareness among participants
and appreciation of each others socio-economic and cultural realities. The exchange
programme acts as the ‘third tier of diplomacy’ by supplementing the efforts of our
diplomats and leaders in building bonds with other friendly nations.
19. On-going Programmes. We have YEPs with ten countries. These are on a
reciprocal basis except Maldives and Trinidad & Tobago. Reciprocal implies that air fare
for both to & fro journey is borne by country of the visiting cadets and hospitality
including accommodation, transport and food is borne by the host country.

20. Participation. Approximately 100 cadets take part in YEP. Further, 28 SD

(Navy) cadets are earmarked for foreign cruises organised by the Navy and the Coast-
Guard. These cadets are selected from amongst those nominated by the State NCC Dtes
for RDC during Dec-Jan every year. The selection process is based on a written exam
followed by screening by a Board of Officers headed by Additional Director General
(ADG). The successful cadets are finally interviewed by DG. The OIC delegations are
selected by a similar process of interviews held at HQ DGNCC during the month of Apr
every year. During the past two years, the following visits took place : -
