Enrollment

Enrollment for the 2024/2025 Training Year has now closed. Please stay tuned for the start of registration in August/September 2025.

Our group accepts new registrants annually, from 1 August to 21 November using the Online Registration Tool (ORT). Later registration plays a significant impact to a new cadets’ training progression, therefore submissions completed after 21 November 2024 will not be accepted.
