VETERANS/MILITARY BENEFITS

MTTI recognizes the dedicated service military veterans have given to ensure the safety and security of our country.  We believe the work skills, personal discipline and leadership qualities developed during military service make veterans highly desirable candidates in today’s competitive workforce. MTTI is committed to assisting and supporting all applicants who are eligible for veterans/military benefits.

MTTI has School Certifying Officials (SCOs) on campus who will guide you through the process of utilizing your VA educational benefits.  Please contact MTTI’s SCOs at 508-336-6611 for assistance.

Tool bonus awards are not charged to the VA. Tool bonus awards are awarded to graduates upon verification of training-related employment within 90 days of graduation. Each program has different tool bonus awards, which are subject to change.
 

EXTENSION CAMPUS

MTTI’s 78 Leavitt Street, Seekonk, MA 02771 location is recognized by the VA as an extension campus. An extension campus is defined by the VA as a location of an educational institution that is geographically apart from, and is operationally dependent on, the main campus or a branch campus of the educational institution.
