New VA education program called VOW has launched

[Raimond]

A new education program has been signed into law.
This program called VOW is about providing Veterans with one year of education if they qualify.

VRAP (a part of VOW) offers 12 months of training assistance to unemployed Veterans. To qualify, a Veteran must:

Be at least 35 but no more than 60 years old
Be unemployed (as determined by DoL) with special consideration given to Veterans who have been unemployed for more than 26 weeks
Have an other than dishonorable discharge
Not be eligible for any other VA education benefit program (e.g.: the Post-9/11 GI Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment Assistance)
Not be in receipt of VA compensation due to unemployability
Not be enrolled in a federal or state job training program

Here is the link.

I hope this is of benefit to someone, please share with other people as you see fit to ensure every Veteran becomes aware.
