Evidence register
A transparent record of what public sources support, what they do not establish, and where CBAT Academy uses its own training methodology.
Primary references
The one-day CBAT setting at RAF College Cranwell and the broad abilities described by the RAF, including physical response, spatial interpretation, multitasking, reasoning, work rate and concentration.
Public descriptions of verbal, numerical, work-rate, spatial, electrical and mechanical aptitude areas. DAA is distinct from CBAT and is not presented as the same assessment.
The public RCAF description of computer-based aircrew selection and cognitive domains such as strategic task management, perceptual processing, memory, spatial and symbolic reasoning, psychomotor ability and central information processing.
The CFASC location at 8 Wing / Canadian Forces Base Trenton, the two-day CFAST testing structure, and the fact that Pilot, AEC and ACSO aptitude are all assessed within the same testing session.
The Officer Aviation pathway structure described on the ADF guide page, including that applicants enter as Officer Aviation candidates and are later directed toward Pilot or Mission Aircrew based on preference, performance and availability.
Secondary context
Context for historical candidate discussions about score presentation. It does not establish current official thresholds or scoring algorithms.
The general shape of the ADF aviation selection sequence described on the ADF guide page (initial aptitude assessment, Assessment Day, additional aircrew testing, Aviation Screening Program, Officer Selection Board) and the candidate-reported absence of calculators during entry testing. ADF Careers does not publish an equivalent process breakdown, so this level of detail is not independently confirmed by an official source.
Independent Academy methodology
Public sources do not provide CBAT Academy’s module weights, normalisation, practice stanines, readiness estimates or a complete current official scoring algorithm. Those parts of the platform are independently developed and are labelled as training feedback.
