Missionary Training Center

Missionary Training Centers are centers devoted to training missionaries for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The flagship MTC is located in Provo, Utah, adjacent to the campus of Brigham Young University, a private university owned and operated by the church.

At the beginning of their service, missionaries usually spend 3–12 weeks at an MTC where they receive training in doctrine, conduct, proselytizing methods, and, when required, a new language. As of March 2020, there are 10 MTCs throughout the world, in locations in addition to Provo, including Brazil, Colombia, England, Ghana, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, the Philippines, and South Africa.
