CadetNet

Applying for Activities

All NZCF activities are applied for through CadetNet, so it is important that cadets are able to access CadetNet and can navigate the site.

How to apply for NZCF Activities

To apply for NZCF activities (e.g. promotional courses, skills), the cadet will need to log into CadetNet on Google Chrome, then click on "CadetNet' in the top right hand corner. They will then need to click on "ATP", then click on the course that they wish to apply for. The cadet will then click "apply as student", at which point an email will be sent to their primary next of kin. This next of kin will need to approve the email BEFORE the closing time for applications for the cadet to have applied successfully.

How to apply for Unit Activities

To apply for unit activities, the cadet must follow the same process as above for logging into CadetNet on Google Chrome. The only difference is that instead of clicking "ATP", the cadet will hover their mouse over "Unit Training", then click on "Unit Training Programme". The process is then the same as for an activity on the ATP.

Common Issue:

"There are no activities showing up"

A. in the search bar, ensure that "City of Christchurch Cadet Unit" is selected

So you've applied on CadetNet. What now?

Your primary next of kin will be sent an email to confirm your application, unless you're 18 years or older in which case the email will go to you.

Before your next of kin starts, make sure that Google Chrome is your default browser. They'll then need to locate the email - remember to check the Spam folder. The email will be from "do.not.reply@cadetforces.org.nz". Click the green approve button on the email, and ensure that the email then opens in Google Chrome. The next of kin will then double-check the cadet's details, then click the approve button at the bottom of the page.

The cadet's application will not be approved until this step is done.
