Are You Getting the Most Out of Your Military Education Benefits?

Monday, March 29, 2010

One of the major benefits of being an active duty service member or veteran is the ability to pursue your educational goals without having to pay costly tuition fees. In fact, there are various resources and benefits that are available to you for the purpose of pursuing your education and transitioning to a civilian career. Here are some tips you can use to maximize your tuition assistance benefits:



Explore your resources. Since the choice of so many options can be overwhelming, trained professionals are available to help guide you through the process. For example, soldiers on active duty might want to look into the Transition Assistance Program which counsels service members through the transition back to civilian life.

If you are a veteran, the Department of Veteran Affairs will provide you with loads of helpful information regarding education benefits. They will be more than happy to meet with you in person, or you can visit their website if more convenient.

Know your Benefits. While most of us know that the military has a wide range of resources for military service members, the majority of us are not fully aware of all the programs offered.

For example, the Montgomery GI Bill provides veterans with the perfect opportunity to continue their education. As described in the bill, you are entitled to some form of tuition assistance (TA) in return for serving the country. The Bill offers enough flexibility so that you can use it for flight training, online education courses, a degree, certification/licensing and other educational pursuits.

Assistance for Eligible Family Members: If you have dependents, the military may be able to help eligible family members advance their careers through education as well. For the most up-to-date information concerning these programs, consult militaryonesource.com.
