(BEYA 2906) Veterans Transition Roundtable (Hosted by The Boeing Company)
There are many challenges that armed service enlisted men and women face in transitioning into civilian employment. Despite their significant soft and technical skills, veterans show significantly higher unemployment rates than their nonveteran counterparts. The vast majority of these transitioning service members are under 30 years old; the most unemployed segment of the labor force nationwide. The goal in addressing this issue is to close the gap between veteran and non-veteran hiring.
At the end of this seminar, participants will:
- Acknowledgement that there is no seamless path from military departure to civilian employment,
- Understanding of the key challenges that military members face while transitioning into the workplace.
- Discuss the values that veterans bring to the workplace.
- Produce practical steps that key stakeholders can take to create a smooth and functioning transition system.
