First, total cadet participation is measured year-to-year, using the JLBC data set as the initial baseline. Second, the average annualized JLBC cadet promotion rate for participating squadrons will be compared with the non-participating squadrons’ average.
JLBC Promotes individual excellence and learning in JLBC leadership, JLBC rescue, JLBC fitness, and JLBC character. JLBC This is measured through end-of-activity self and peer assessments to achieve an average score
of 4.0 or better out of 4.5.
