A different type of Coaching & Mentoring Program Veterans Educational Transformation Solutions: (VETS) - Beyond The Uniform is a coaching & mentoring program designed for veterans & employers by veterans The VETS - Beyond the Uniform program has been developed by military veterans with the specific goals of helping veterans make a successful journey from the military into the civilian workforce, and to also help employers that hire veterans become "veteran ready". Not a Transition Program! There are 100's of transition programs available to transitioning military veterans. There are so many, that it sometimes gets confusing trying to identify the differences and benefits of each one. So we decided to NOT be a typical transition program. VETS - Beyond the Uniform's mission is to augment the skills taught by military transition programs and work to improve the veterans chances for successful long term careers by providing the additional skills used in the civilian workforce. Our program is designed to work as a standalone veteran's mentoring program or alongside existing military transition programs. Veterans have received basic military training and have been provided the additional occupational training required to perform in their military roles. However, even the best trained veterans may be missing the key skills needed to successfully integrate into today’s civilian workforce. Unlike a lot of the other programs, VETS - Beyond the Uniform provides veterans over 200 free soft-skills training workshops, webinars, and self-paced online training to help them successfully integrate and to be effective in the business world and civilian workforce. We provide the required skills and eliminate the culture shock between military & corporate cultures. The VETS - Beyond the Uniform program also provides coaching and mentoring support for companies and organizations looking to implement successful "veteran ready" hiring & retention programs.
