Welcome to the Military Career Transition Program
Designed with the needs and interests of the military person and their spouse in mind, the Military Career Transition Program (MCTP) is a graduate, off-campus, evening, and weekend initial teacher licensure program. It is specifically geared towards military and Department of Defense (DoD) personnel and their spouses.
