AMVETS Generation T Scholarships
There are currently 500,000 job openings in the skilled trades industry and that number is projected to increase to three million by 2028.
Take a listen as John, a graduate from Dyer, shares his story of transition into a new career and the benefits of the training he received with his AMVETS scholarship.
Vocational training can lead to fulfilling jobs with competitive pay in a fraction of the time and cost of a traditional four-year university.
Through this partnership, AMVETS aims to fulfill Generation T’s vision.
Generation T is on a mission to change people’s lives. To show them that “work doesn’t have to be a grind. To show them benefits go way beyond healthcare and 401k. To show them you can enjoy what you do, buy a house, take vacations, and support a family. To give them hope, happiness, and the satisfaction of a job well done.â€
Just as our veterans have protected and sacrificed for this country, the skilled trades have built and sustained this country. Merging these two American pillars is mission critical.
