Troops to Teachers (TTT) assists eligible military personnel transition to a new career as public school teachers in targeted schools. A network of State TTT Offices has been established to provide participants with counseling and assistance regarding licensure requirements, routes to state licensure, and employment opportunities.
Pending availability of funds, financial assistance may be provided to eligible individuals as stipends up to $5,000 to help pay for teacher certification costs or as bonuses of $10,000 to teach in schools serving a high percentage of students from low-income families. Participants who accept the Stipend or Bonus must agree to teach for three years in targeted schools in accordance with the authorizing legislation.
Visit the National Troops for Teachers to view information and resource links -- including a job referral system to search for job vacancies as well as links to state Departments of Education, state licensure offices, model resumes, and other job listing sites in public education.
