Aerospace
Education
CAP, as the civilian Auxiliary of the U.S.
Air Force, supports Aerospace Education for two different
audiences - internal CAP members and the general public.
The internal programs ensure that all CAP
members (seniors and cadets) have an appreciation for and
knowledge of aerospace issues. A rigorous educational program
is tied to promotions at every level in the CAP organization.
At
Carroll Squadron, we offer AE programs through attendance
and support at airshows, flights in civil and military aircraft,
and activities such as model rocket building classes.
CAP also plans and executes the National Congress
on Aviation and Space Education. NCASE is the premier aerospace
education conference held in the nation. The NCASE is designed
to promote an understanding of aviation and space education
to motivate and encourage teachers to incorporate aerospace
education into their curriculum. It also encourages aerospace
leaders to speak out on aerospace issues facing our nation
today.
