Military Academic Skills Program

The Military Academic Skills Programs was developed to improve the competencies of active duty enlisted personnel in the academic skills of reading, communication/writing, and mathematics. In turn, Marines will be better prepared to retake the Armed Forces Classification Test (AFCT) and to perform their mission.

The MASP program officially began January 27, 1997 after a pilot program was conducted in November 1996.

General eligibility and target populations for MASP include:

Enlisted personnel with a General Technical (GT) score of 99 or below.
Enlisted personnel who score below 10.2 on the Test for Adult Basic Education (TABE)
Enlisted personnel referred by Commanding Officers to improve work performance.
Self-referral for career, professional and personal development.
