Innovative Readiness Training

Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) is a Department of Defense (DoD) military training opportunity, exclusive to the United States and its territories, that delivers joint training opportunities to increase deployment readiness. Simultaneously, IRT provides key services (healthcare, construction, transportation, civil affairs, and cybersecurity) with lasting benefits for our American communities. This collaborative program builds mutually beneficial civil-military partnerships between communities and the DoD to: - Provide high-quality, hands-on, real-world training for Active, Guard, and Reserve support personnel and units - Deliver and improve military readiness and partnership capability to serve when the nation calls - Contribute to American prosperity by providing diverse military capabilities to meet local needs and challenges - Strengthen the bond between American citizens, communities, and the U.S. military - Kindle a spirit of service and volunteerism among all partners and the communities they serve
