The Air Training Corps is a British volunteer-military youth organisation, sponsored by the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Air Force. The majority of staff are volunteers, and some are paid for full-time work – including Commandant Air Cadets, a Full Term Reserve Service RAF officer, at the rank of Air Commodore. Although many ATC cadets go on to join the RAF or other services, the ATC is no longer set up as a recruiting organisation.Activities include sport, adventurous training , ceremonial drill, rifle shooting, fieldcraft, powered aircraft and glider flying, and other outdoor activities, as well as classification training leading up to a BTEC in Aviation Studies. Week-long trips to RAF stations, or camps offering adventure training or music, allow the opportunity for cadets to gain a taste of military life and often to gain some flying experience in RAF gliders and RAF training aircraft such as the Grob Tutor. Cadet membership can begin from the start of School Year 8 , or equivalent in Scotland and Northern Ireland. New members will join as a junior cadet and can earn positions of increasing responsibility in a military rank structure, as well as having increasing skill and competence recognised in a classification scheme .

In April 2017, the ATC numbered 31,190 cadets and 10,280 adult volunteers . In addition, there were several thousand civilian committee members.
