Attention  Maryland veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces, National Guard, or Reserves! The Maryland Transit Administration is proud to announce the creation of the MTA Veterans Workforce Training Program.

Under this program, many MTA training classes will be open, at absolutely no cost, to qualified U.S. military veterans who are Maryland residents. This includes those who have served in the reserves and National Guard. Once MTA employees have had the opportunity to register, eligible U.S. veterans will be able to apply for remaining open seats in many MTA training classes, with preference given to those veterans with service-connected disabilities.

The primary goal of the program is to assist U.S. military veterans living in Maryland, regardless of age or length of service, with preparation for a meaningful career by providing the skills and training opportunities necessary to succeed in today’s workforce.

All veterans applying to the program will need proof of Maryland residency and their DD-214 form. Contact Marvin Mason, Special Assistant to the Director, Office of Training and Development, 410-767-0707, or email him at mmason@mtamaryland.com to arrange for an appointment.
