My transition from the military to a civilian job was actually just a change in uniform, for teaching is still a way of serving this country by making a difference in a child's life.

Registration
Service members interested in the Troops to Teachers program can now check their eligibility and register online at either of these two links:

Eligibility:Â
http://www.dantes.doded.mil/dantes_Web/troopstoteachers/eligibility.asp
Registration:  http://www.dantes.doded.mil/dantes_Web/troopstoteachers/registrationoverview.asp

It takes approximately 10-15 minutes to complete the eligibility questionnaire and registration form.  Upon submission, an email is sent to the states where the registrant has expressed an interest in teaching.  Registrants also will receive an automated reply email that contains contact information for the national TTT office, as well as the state-level TTT offices.Â

Documents can be faxed or mailed, but online registration speeds up the process considerably.  Service members get a quicker response from Troops to Teachers staff - and if eligible, they receive money certification.  Moreover, state offices are alerted sooner, so they can provide individual support and counseling to registrants. Â

To receive immediate assistance, you should contact a TTT state office for the geographical region in which you desire to teach. This can be done before or after completing the registration. Please do not hesitate to call with any question or concern.
