Advanced Training has been providing education and support to active duty military and veterans for over a decade.

We now offer educational opportunities to military spouses in an effort to meet the need for career oriented training in the fields of Health Care, Information Technology and Financial Services. Our friends have long awaited the Military Spouse Career Advancement Initiative.

ATA is an accredited institution with an established military relationship. We are also a Department of Defense small business/veteran owned contractor.

Malissia Smith, ATA's Education and Placement Coordinator, directs the Military Spouse Training Program. Malissia is the wife of a career Navy man, Scottie Smith, who is also a substitute instructor for the school's Fiber Optic Program. "The school is so military-friendly already that it just makes sense for us to provide training to families and spouses." said Mrs. Smith. "As a military spouse myself, I know how valuable having my own career has been when Scottie is deployed. Going to school takes the focus off of our spouse and gives us a real sense of accomplishment independently." ATA staff and students are all like family. The support system is incredible!

The school will be offering special military spouse tuition that will assist those who do not qualify for full federal financial aid. The Military Scholarship Program will be expanded to include families of active duty personnel. Our goal is to help the military spouses in the San Diego area take full advantage of the retention initiatives proposed by The Pentagon and the US Department of Labor.

Call now and see how our experience with military life can make in difference as you choose a new career path.
