VIRGINIA PARTICIPATION IN THE NATIONAL MILITARY INITIATIVE

PROJECT

The Advanced Placement Training and Incentive Program (APTIP) is a comprehensive approach that increases teacher effectiveness and student achievement through training, teacher and student support, vertical teaming, open enrollment, and incentives.

The program increases dramatically the number of students taking and passing AP math, science, and English exams, and expands access to traditionally under-represented students.
