Upcoming Events

2016 MN Leadership Academy: Oct 20-23, 2016 
Camp Ripley, Little Falls, MN - There are three schools that comprise the Minnesota Leadership Academy (MLA):
  • Airman Training School (ATS) is ideal for cadets who have not yet attended Encampment.  Cadets get a snapshot of the opportunities that are available in the Civil Air Patrol as well as some special experiences including military museum tours, computer simulators and military obstacle courses.
  • Non-Commissioned Officers School (NCOS) is the next training step for the cadet that has just completed Encampment.  Now that the basics of Encampment have been learned, NCOS is where cadets learn to build and enhance their skills as direct leaders.  They learn to drill a flight, give classes and speeches and be the first level mentor to other cadets.  Students must have earned Encampment credit to apply to NCOS.
  • Regional Cadet Leadership School (RCLS) is meant for senior NCOs and junior officers who have earned Encampment credit.  At RCLS, cadets learn the skills of indirect leadership in a hands-on, active learning, problem-based collaborative environment. RCLS is one of the academic requirement options cadets must earn to achieve the Eaker Award.  Students must hold the grade of C/MSgt at the time of application, however this school is most relevant for junior cadet officers. Cadet NCOs are encouraged to attend NCOS before RCLS.

​The 130th will coordinate transportation for cadets. 

Registration for Cadre and Students are on MN Wing MLA Info Page

Women Inspiring the Next Generation (Wing) Flight

​Several female cadets from the 130th had an amazing opportunity on Sept 27, 2015 to attend Delta's first Women Inspiring the Next Generation (WING) Flight. Cadets flew to Seattle for the day where they experienced the renown Seattle Museum of Flight and were mentored female aviators and astronauts. Note: The cadets were transported and chaperoned by an all female flight crew and ground support team. They had an "Amazing Time"!
