Good afternoon,

The Department of Veterans Affairs’ five-year pilot program, Veteran Employment Through Technology Education Courses (VET TEC), is coming to an end. This innovative program provided $45 million annually to pair Veterans with high-technology programs and featured performance targets and oversight of providers based on the agreements entered with VA.

With the program ending, no new VET TEC enrollments can be submitted or paid.

What does this mean for you?

If you are in receipt of a Certificate of Eligibility (COE) but have not received a VET TEC award letter from VA confirming enrollment in the VET TEC program of choice, VA can no longer reimburse training.

What is the future of the VET TEC program? 

VA is working to make VET TEC a permanent program; however, no legislation has been passed which would affect the program. We encourage you to check the Veterans Technology Education Courses website periodically for changes or updates regarding the future of VET TEC
