Cadetship is the most intensive formational stage of training towards officership.

Cadets are well supported throughout their formation journey by Eva Burrows College (EBC) staff in Officer Formation, Higher Education, Learning and Professional Development, Support Service, The Salvation Army LEARN, other education professionals.
