Education for Advancement

In Podcast #040 we welcome Alison Garrow, Mission43’s Education pillar director, to the studio. Alison assists our members to identify educational and professional development opportunities that will help them build a successful life in Idaho after the military. In this episode, Alison discusses how members can leverage their military experience to pursue a career in cybersecurity. She also discusses SkillBridge, a Department of Defense program that allows service members to gain civilian work experience and training before they transition out of the military. Lastly, we talk about the value of the PMP certification and how it helps people stand out in the job market and earn higher salaries. Join us as we explore the many ways in which veterans and their spouses can access educational resources and programs to help them achieve their goals!
