Great aide to lesson plans and keeps things simple, allowing you to add the further detail when giving a lesson. Good to keep you on track and act like bullet points during a presentation, pictures are nice and clear. Delivery was amazing and came quicker than expected.

We are an independent cadet unit, and find this book excellent for teaching our recruits.

I bought these to help with my planning and tracking of the basic cadets that come through my detachment, and honestly. They're a god send. They make it so much simpler and they lay it all out in a nice and easy format to follow. My senior cadets love these as it makes planning their lessons so much easier.

As an Ex-Cadet entering the ACF as a adult instructor this book has given me clear and instructions on how to make my lesson plans and would help Cadets understand the syllabus better. I wish I had this book when I was a Cadet.
