The PMA Cadetship Program is a prestigious and rigorous training program offered by the Philippine Military Academy (PMA), the country's premier institution for military education and officer training.
The program is designed to groom young Filipino men and women into competent and dedicated military leaders who will serve in the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).
With a strong emphasis on discipline, academic excellence, physical fitness, and character development, the PMA Cadetship Program provides aspiring cadets with an unparalleled opportunity to receive a comprehensive education while preparing for a challenging and fulfilling career in the military.
Through a highly competitive selection process and a four-year training curriculum, cadets are equipped with the necessary skills, knowledge, and values to become officers who uphold the highest standards of professionalism, integrity, and service to the nation.
As cadets progress through the program, they not only gain a deep understanding of military strategy, leadership, and tactics but also develop a strong sense of patriotism, resilience, and camaraderie.
Upon graduation, cadets are commissioned as officers in the AFP, where they embark on a lifelong commitment to protect and defend the Philippines.
The PMA Cadetship Program not only offers a pathway to a fulfilling military career but also provides cadets with the opportunity to contribute to the country's security, stability, and development.
