Introductory Communications User Training (ICUT)

This is the initial training for all CAP personnel using CAP radios.

ICUT is offered online and includes several segments of produced video instruction. Subsequent skills evaluation by a mentor/evaluator is also required. The only prerequisites for ICUT are being an active CAP cadet or senior member, as defined by CAPR 39-2 and completion of OPSEC training. All members with duties including unsupervised operation of radios on CAP frequencies must complete ICUT training.

The course is made up of 3 sections: OP1, T1, and OP2. Subsequent skills evaluation by a mentor/evaluator is also required. Connect with your Chain of Command to arrange the hands-on portion of the training.
