Veteran’s Guide to Vocational Schools and Apprenticeship Programs

We’ve highlighted a number of resources on this site in the past to help facilitate your transition out of the military. Some resources involve financial tips, others involve education, and others are based on vocational training. While everyone’s transition plan is different, the educational opportunities afforded to veterans make schooling the right choice for many. Today, we will highlight a guide to schools and apprenticeship programs offered to transitioning veterans. This resource includes MOS-specific careers and opportunities that you may find useful as you exit the military.

• The Veterans’ Guide to Vocational Schools and Apprenticeship Programs offers a comprehensive overview of educational benefits tailored for U.S. Armed Forces veterans, primarily focusing on the Post-9/11 GI Bill and the Montgomery GI Bill. It delves into eligibility criteria and benefits, emphasizing the applicability of these programs to vocational schools and apprenticeships. It also sheds light on alternative programs, such as Vocational Rehabilitation & Employment and the Yellow Ribbon Program, providing diverse options for veterans, especially those with service-connected disabilities. The guide further highlights the affordability and potential career opportunities associated with vocational schools and apprenticeships, making them attractive alternatives to traditional college education.
  
  Additionally, the guide provides practical insights for veterans navigating the transition from military service to civilian careers. It includes a comprehensive analysis of common military jobs and their civilian equivalents, achievable through vocational degrees or apprenticeships. The guide concludes by offering information on scholarships exclusive to veterans pursuing vocational education, along with additional resources such as eBenefits, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and VetJobs, forming a robust support network for veterans exploring non-traditional postsecondary education paths.
