Have you checked the Careers tab on here? How about USAJobs? Have you reached out to local veterans assistance groups such as the VA or possibly through one of the local AD posts?

Looks like Warner Robbins would be not too far away from you.

If I recall correctly, many of the bases should have an education and employment office that you could call for information. You could also look into the National Guard headquarters for similar resources.
