Soldiers, the ACAP, SFL, TAP, check-the-block-before-you-separate, stupid-mandatory-five-day workshop, or whatever else you want to call it is a very informative course. Even a Reservist with his civilian life in order can benefit from the time blocks covering the resume, GI Bill, healthcare, and other things involving the transition. The entire class is also a major opportunity to network with the dozens of professionals that’ll brief you on particular topics during your enrollment in the week long course.


After that horror, you’ll be able to take a few two-day workshops. There’s one each to cover employment and entrepreneurship. The third, Accessing Higher Education, covers the GI Bill in it’s entirety and college resources- listed below.

Don’t forget to check for VA or military liasons for more information within the college(s) you consider.

GI Bill Comparison Tool – See what your GI Bill and VA benefits cover and statistics for various colleges

Military.com Benefits by Region – Learn about specific Veteran benefits per state. Each state, much like colleges, has different Veteran benefits and policies.
