Summary
Supporting the goal of ensuring that members of the Armed Forces have opportunities to receive career technical education training and credentialing opportunities during their term of service to ensure they can transition directly into in-demand civilian careers. Supports providing members of the Armed Forces the opportunity to receive vocational trade training and credentialing opportunities for no cost.
