Cadet Troop Leadership Training
For Senior Students:
Cadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) is designed as a “follow-on” training experience for ROTC Advanced Camp graduates. CTLT offers cadets the opportunity to intern and perform the duties of a Second Lieutenant in the Army’s basic branches, for up to one month with an active duty unit in the continental United States or overseas.
Actual duties performed will vary by branch and unit but will generally be those duties expected of a Second Lieutenant in that unit. Many cadets will serve as either platoon leaders or assistant platoon leaders. This is a fantastically rewarding opportunity and should be sought by all eligible cadets. Cadets receive pay and allowance equal to 1/2 that of a second lieutenant. Must be an Advanced Camp graduate and not participating in the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP).
