Transitioning Service Members

USA Career Skills Program and DoW SkillBridge

This program is available to transitioning Service Members of all branches within 180 days of their expiration of terms of service (ETS). This program uses veteran benefits such as Chapter 31 Veteran Readiness and Employment or Chapter 33 Post-9/11 GI Bill. The program is designed to assist soldiers and transitioning service members in transitioning to civilian careers by providing opportunities for training and internships through our Cybersecurity Specialist Program consisting of CompTIA Tech+, A+, Network+, Security+, Cloud+, Cybersecurity Analyst (CYSA+) and Lean Six Sigma Green Belt. The objective is to obtain at least one CompTIA certification and the Lean Six Sigma certification before graduation. We also provide workshops on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, and job search strategy. We have built relationships with employer partners who attend Career Fairs each quarter at the center, accept direct referrals for their open positions, and conduct interviews with our students. This program helps soldiers and transitioning service members from all branches obtain industry-recognized credentials and learn job responsibilities, new skills, and industry-specific practices while on active duty. The CSP aims to improve civilian employment options as they prepare to leave military service.
