Military Education
Professional Military Education plays an important role in preparing cadets to become Air Force officers. As a cadet, you will take courses that provide a firm foundation in military strategy, doctrine, heritage and professionalism and you’ll learn about career benefits, communication skills, instructional roles and the responsibilities of an officer. This training will prepare you for leadership roles in both the cadet wing and the Air Force.

Military training at the Air Force Academy includes specific leadership enrichment experiences for cadet commanders. From wing commander through squadron flight commander, cadet leaders must face the challenges that come with having the success of a 4,000-member cadet wing in their hands. But you won't face this challenge alone. To help you succeed in your first real tests of command, the Academy conducts seminars on teamwork, communication, problem solving, delegation of authority, setting standards, wing goals and conflict resolution.
