John Tansill, SkillStorm’s Director of Veteran Affairs was at Joint Base McGuire/Dix/Lakehurst last week for a Hiring Our Heroes Career Fair. He was able to explain how SkillStorm Accelerates Opportunity by creating a pathway to employment in the tech industry utilizing COOL, VET TEC, and Techforce by Design. John continually points Veterans to other employers at the job fairs when their interest is not in technology. Pictured with him is a former coworker from NYC, Tracy Panford, who is a Navy Veteran looking for a position as a Corporate Instructor teaching classes in soft/professional skills or a position as a project manager. John was able to introduce her to team members he knows from Southwest Airlines, Pike Electric Corporation, Barclays, and Johnson and Johnson. #wheresjohn #veteranshelpingveterans #hiringourheroes

Suzette Kent, a member of the SkillStorm Advisory Board, recently co-authored an article for RealClearEducation with Ken Eisner, ETS Managing Director, Higher Education to Workforce. The article highlights the importance of skill development programs like #VETTEC for transitioning service members adjusting to civilian life. In their piece, Suzette and Ken note, “Several studies have shown that veterans are nearly 40% more likely than non-veterans to face underemployment—working in roles that don’t fully utilize their skills or qualifications.” The VET TEC program has already demonstrated its effectiveness over the past five years, with nearly half of its graduates securing meaningful employment with salaries of at least $65,000 annually.
