Credentialing Opportunities for Army Soldiers
Credentialing Assistance allows Army active duty, Army National Guard, and Army Reserve soldiers from around the nation to pursue credentials and off-duty training programs that support soldiers' professional development. Certificate programs available for Army credentialing include the Lean Six Sigma Black Belt and Project Management Professional (PMP). U.S. Army Credentialing Assistance will fund training for Army active duty, Army National Guard, and Reserve soldiers that leads to credentials, licensure, certification, and event recertification, plus books, fees, materials, and exams.
Education for Transitioning Service Members in the State of Georgia
The Veterans Education Training and Transition (VET2) program is among the first of its kind in the country and is a fully-funded military transition program that provides education and job opportunities to help transitioning active duty service members, unemployed veterans, and military spouses translate military values and experience into a civilian career.
Education for Active-Duty Units, Personnel and Department of Defense Civilians
Active-duty units, Department of Defense civilians, and personnel from any branch may take military program courses using a government credit card or the Standard Form SF-182 (Authorization, Agreement, and Certification of Training). We also offer customized learning options for large groups providing tailored development for your team. There are multiple funding sources and ways to engage.
Education for Veterans
Currently employed veterans can attend any credentialing program as an independent student using a credit card or company purchase order. Additionally, veterans with a service-connected disability rating of at least 10% from the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) may qualify to take advantage of a credentialing course at no cost by applying through Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E).
My Career Advancement Account Scholarship
Georgia Tech Professional Education is excited to offer My Career Advancement Account Scholarship (MyCAA) opportunities to assist with participation in our military programs. MyCAA allows spouses of active military personnel to use scholarship funds to pursue certificates or degrees necessary to gain employment in an occupation or career field.

Over the next few years, as many as 60,000 military members are expected to return to Georgia. Corporate sponsors of our military programs play an integral part in its success.
