Veteran Forms
Eligibility
Our veterans courses are open to active duty servicemen and servicewomen and veterans of all conflicts who have deployed as a part of their service. All applicants to our veterans courses will be asked to verify their service with their DD-214 for veterans or deployment documentation for active duty military members.
We welcome Veterans back to take a second course after your first course has been completed, but are asking that alumni not enroll on two courses in the same year. New this year we are also limiting people to two courses total. Given the limited space available on our courses priority will always be given to those who have not attended a course with us previously. However, if you have been re-deployed since your last Veterans’ course, you are welcome to apply again and we will reserve a spot on course for you right away.
