Troop Leadership Training (CTLT) PLATOON LEADER
DATES: June - August 2008 (4 Week Increments)
LOCATION: Worldwide
This annual event is part of a three track program; CTLT Platoon Leader, Drill Cadet Leadership Training (DCLT), and internships. It allows cadets from the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) and United States Military Academy (USMA) to train in platoon leader positions. Cadets are placed in charge of regular Army platoons and are tested on their ability to perform the leadership and management tasks necessary to train the platoon’s Soildiers and maintain its equipment. The experiences, insights and firsthand knowledge received at CTLT can better prepare a cadet for his/her future as an officer.
