Air Force Academy cadets to get training on etiquette, event planning

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Cadets at the Air Force Academy will soon add another class to their graduation requirements -- decorum.

The Air Force has put out a notice requesting bids from companies interesting in teaching "Social Decorum Training Program at the US Air Force Academy."

According to the Federal Government's website, the class may include social decorum training in military, business, communication, dining, social and professional etiquette.

The class should also include event planning including producing invitations, nametags, securing venues for events, teaching hosts responsibilities, coordinating food support and coordinating reimbursement paperwork after events.

It appears cadets will be required to take the class each year that they are at the academy.
