VETERAN WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT
PROGRAM

The program is structured around five core competency domains, each crucial for success in the civilian workforce. We utilize a blended learning approach, combining the benefits of a flipped classroom model with both synchronous (live) and asynchronous (self-paced) learning experiences to ensure maximum flexibility and engagement. Flipped Classroom Model: This model emphasizes pre-class preparation. Before each two-hour synchronous session, participants will engage with pre-recorded videos, readings, and other resources. This allows participants to come to the live session prepared to actively engage in discussions, activities, and personalized guidance, maximizing the value of your time and expertise.
