MTC Overview

Since 1981, Management and Training Corporation (MTC) has helped disadvantaged populations rise above their challenges to earn academic and technical training credentials and live meaningful, productive lives. MTC’s core business in Corrections, Education & Training, MTC Medical, and Economic & Social Development help people positively change their lives. The following short video provides an overview of MTC’s approach:

• Providing effective rehabilitative programs and services to men and women to make their time in prison more productive and to reduce re-offending
• Educating and training America’s at-risk youth so they have the technical and life skills they need to find and keep good jobs
• Caring for the medical, dental and mental health needs of the men and women in our care
• Providing workforce training to citizens of other countries so they can take care of themselves and their families
• Reducing re-offending in the United Kingdom by providing transitional services to those serving time, probationers and parolees

“Twenty-two years old and I didn’t have anything going for me. No job, no education, nothing but the clothes on my back. I have made some pretty rash decisions, but this one decision, Job Corps, was my best choice.” ~ Ashley Gillespie, Current MTC Job Corps Student
