Department of Labor invites partners to expand employment, training services for transitioning veterans and spouses

The Department of Labor’s Veterans Employment and Training Service is accepting applications from public and private organizations to help transitioning servicemembers and military spouses through the Employment Navigator and Partnership Pilot.

This initiative provides one-on-one career assistance to transitioning servicemembers and their spouses at select military installations worldwide and complements classroom instruction provided through the agency’s Transition Assistance Program. Employment Navigators help connect transitioning servicemembers and their spouses to public and private sector partner organizations, whose services may include apprenticeship opportunities, hiring events, digital matching of skills and experiences, employment mentorship and networking, employment referrals and placement, training services, and wrap-around services within communities for additional support services.
