Cadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT)

Dismounted PatrolCadet Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) is a program offered to ROTC cadets after the completion of Advanced Camp that is designed to teach them about life as an officer in the regular Army. Cadets are assigned to active duty Army units as platoon leaders and execute the responsibilities of second lieutenants.

Cadets usually spend three weeks at CTLT if they are assigned to a unit in the US or four weeks if they are assigned to a unit in either Germany or South Korea. They interact with officers and NCO's and participate in the everyday operations of the unit to which they are assigned. This unique program offers cadets a chance to experience what it will be like when they are commissioned as Second Lieutenants.

Qualifications:

  • Have successfully completed Advanced Camp.
  • Selected by the Professor of Military Science. This selection is usually based upon an order of merit list.
