Whether you’re searching for a new career, finishing your high school diploma or exploring your options, Job Corps can provide you with free training to jump-start your future. 

Montana Youth Challenge Academy is a residential academic intervention program on the campus of the University of Montana Western for 16-18 year old students who are seeking an opportunity for change. Designed by the National Guard Bureau and run through a cooperative agreement between the federal government and the state of Montana, the Academy offers military-style structure and discipline along with academic, professional, and life-coping skills students need to become productive citizens. Challenge empowers participants, whom we call cadets, to embrace responsibility, achievement, and positive behavior. It instills self-confidence, fosters ambition, and increases opportunities through job skills training, service to the community, and leadership. 

By taking the HiSET, you can earn a high-school equivalency credential, allowing you to advance your career, join the military, begin a training program, or continue your education.
