As of December 2015, it had a total strength of 18,000+ members. This consists of 823 Officers, 407 Cadet Officers and 14500 cadets, amongst others. The NCC is represented in Secondary Schools and there are a total 154 School Units-120 Land Units, 17 Sea Units and 17 Air Units. ActivitiesWithin the framework of the training programme, NCC cadets have the opportunity of taking part in many activities. Training DaysEvery unit conducts training at least twice a week. Training Days usually begins and ends with a simple parade. The parade at the start of training is usually used for taking attendance and briefing cadets on the schedule for the day's training session while the parade at the end of training is used to brief cadets on subsequent events and as a short feedback session. A typical training day might include Physical Training, Drills and lessons on topics such as Individual Fieldcraft, Navigation and other military-related topics. Physical TrainingPhysical Training (PT) usually starts with a short warm-up, then a few sets of static exercises before the whole unit goes for a company run. Physical fitness is a criterion for the Best Unit Competition. It is also a graded component for courses. Physical Fitness is also a key factor in the current theme of "Cadet Strong", whereby NCC Cadets are “Cadet Strong”, with a resilient mind, fit body and committed heart. Mind: A cadet with a resilient mind is confident to take on challenges and overcome setbacks. Body: Every cadet understands the importance of a fit body, takes ownership to maintain a good level of physical fitness and adopt healthy eating habits. Heart: Each cadet has a committed heart and lives by the NCC Core Values with a strong sense of purpose to serve the cadet’s team, school and nation. Cadet learns passionately to develop cadet’s own abilities and proactively contributes towards wherever the cadet is. Technical HandlingAll cadets have to go through Technical Handling (Trainfire) lessons as part of the NCC Basic Trainfire Package in order to learn the proper procedures of handling the SAR 21. Lessons are conducted by SAF National Servicemen Full-time (NSFs) and NCC Cadet Officers who have attained the Army/RSN/RSAF-NCC badge and are certified as Trainfire instructors. The Basic Trainfire Package includes stripping and assembly, marksmanship fundamentals, stoppages and remedies, and weapon reloading. MarksmanshipCadets have the opportunity of firing a SAR 21 rifle on firing ranges. Cadets first train on the Individual Marksmanship Trainer (IMT), a computerised simulation, before progressing on to shoot at live firing ranges. Safety is always the main concern when shooting, with everything done by the book. Cadet live firing is always conducted by active armed forces personnel under the supervision of a trained Safety Officer. An armed forces Medic is also attached as a safety measure. A Shooting Competition is also organised annually where cadets from all three services (Land, Sea and Air) compete. Cadets who obtain a respectable shooting score are awarded a Marksmanship badge. DrillsAll NCC units practice drills as a means of instilling discipline and teamwork, it is also used in formal parades, for moving around military bases and moving cadets in a smart and orderly fashion. Cadets and Cadet Officers who possess a high standard of military drill may be given Parade Appointments such as Colours Ensign, Parade Regimental Sergeant Major, Colours Regimental Sergeant Major and the Parade Commander. This group is given further drill training and compose the Guard-of-Honour contingent who greet visiting dignitaries.

Units have Freestyle Exhibition Drill teams which specialise in performing display drills and the newly introduced Precision Drill Squad who perform with Lee-Enfield Mk-IV rifles. Leadership CoursesEvery cadet is a leader, and will influence their peers to do well and focus on completing the objective at hand. Under the NCC Syllabus, there are a few Leadership Courses for NCC Cadets to attend. Physical Training Instructor (PTI) CourseThe PTI course is designed for our Secondary 2 cadets who have the interest in being a physical fitness instructor. They are taught the various ways of conducting physical fitness lessons and are equipped with the basic theory of physical fitness.

Through situational tests and scenarios, Trainees will also acquire the knowledge of how to plan and execute events/training effectively by working with their team-mates. Leadership skills are also enhanced, as every Trainee is put in a position to lead their platoon. During the 2 weeks, Cadet Officer-Trainees are expected to exemplify themselves as effective leaders, and graduate as a full-fledged Cadet Officer (C/OFFR).
