- protomyth 9y agoTo a point, but the bigger problem for military people entering the workforce is getting civilian certifications for things they have been doing for years. I really wish, in addition to drastically improving the VA, the country would put together a formal "after service" program to help people deal with becoming a civilian. One part that would be helpful is to work with state vocational and certification to translate the military experience into immediate certifications without starting over. The G.I. Bill is very good for military professions that don't have a common civilian analog and the person is going to start again anyway.
