The Junior Trainee Program is for all 1st Degree and Above Black Belts 15 Years old or younger. The program is designed to teach the younger student responsibility and communication skills. The JTI's are typically used to be "Black Belt Buddies" with new students. They also assist at Promotional Tests by assisting the floor coordinators, directing the students, and answering questions for the parents and spectators. Once they have learned a weapon, they are asked to assist in class and at seminars. JTI's are required to be in the Leadership Program
