Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC)
JROTC Air Force Program of Study
Securing a JROTC Program JROTC offers the opportunity for high school students to enroll in a leadership/citizenship program coordinated under the umbrella of the Career, Technical and Agricultural Education Division of the Georgia Department of Education. Any three JROTC courses satisfy the requirements for a career pathway, and the JROTC curriculum satisfies national and Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) requirements. JROTC instructors in Georgia are required to secure a Georgia teaching “Permit” through the Professional Standards Commission in addition to their military credential. Georgia has its fair share of available units/programs; however, schools/systems should apply for a program in case expansion is accelerated. A waiting list is maintained by each branch of service. National Defense Cadet Corps (NDCC) programs are also available through the Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps. NDCC programs are equal to JROTC programs except, they are 100% locally funded. JROTC in Georgia (GAJROTC) is an affiliate organization of the Association for Career and Technical Education and Georgia Association for Career and Technical Education. Federal law establishes JROTC units fairly and equitably across the United States. The following information should be helpful if your school/system wishes to apply for a program:
