Cadet Proficiency Badge Scheme - Registration

Instruction and examination will be based on the syllabus for each subject/badge. The syllabuses are laid with the intention of encouraging interest in the subject and the attainment of adequate knowledge and/or skills which could then be applied practically rather than mere memorisation of facts and figures for the purpose of passing the examination. The syllabuses have deliberately omitted instructional matter so that more latitude is given to the instructor who must be qualified in his/her own subject.

Subjects taken at Secondary 2 with a pass above 60% will be recognised as a pass in the appropriate subject/badge. The school examination must be passed while the candidate is a member of the Brigade. A pass at GCE 'O' level in an appropriate subject will also qualify a candidate for a proficiency badge provided the candidate gives proof of having applied the knowledge to some practical use outside school hours (either by having applied this knowledge in the performance of some service or in some cases, by taking a short practical test).

References are included in the syllabuses which may be useful to both the instructors and candidates.
