ArmyIgnitED and CTC Processes
ArmyIgnitED is the virtual gateway for Soldiers to request TA online, anytime, for classroom and distance learning college courses. It empowers Soldiers to achieve their educational, professional, and self-development goals. Soldiers will have unlimited access to educational opportunities at accredited institutions, support, and guidance while in pursuit of their desired education or credential which helps prepare them for success in the Army and beyond. Before enrolling with CTC, Soldiers must obtain approval from their respective Education Service Officer (ESO) or Military Service counselor to participate in Army’s TA program.
