The My Career Advancement Account (MyCAA) Scholarship Program is a workforce development initiative sponsored by the Department of Defense. It provides up to $4,000 of financial assistance to eligible military spouses, helping them pursue licenses, certifications, or associate degrees necessary for high-demand portable careers.
