Syracuse University’s D’Aniello Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF/D’Aniello Institute) has turned a campus initiative into a national model for success in career transition-related training programs for the military-community.
The D’Aniello Institute’s Onward to Opportunity (O2O) program is a career training program that provides professional certification and employee support services at no cost to transitioning service members, Veterans and military spouses. Based on recent findings, the program is also proven to have a significantly positive impact on the success rate of transitioning service members.
The Clearinghouse for Military Family Readiness at Pennsylvania State University recently finished evaluating more than three years of data on the O2O program. The study concluded that O2O graduates experience a significant increase in post-service employment opportunities and success.

Great resource Lt Col Charlie Brown. For those not familiar with it (I wasn't), as she said, this is open to all veterans as well (only requirement is that you served 180+ days on active duty).
One thing that is very relevant to job seekers, ESPECIALLY in the IT field, is that they have a large number of common industrial certifications that they will train you on AND pay for the certification test (paying for the test is something not a lot of programs do).
And no impact to your GI Bill.

I work with transitioning service members. If you have some time I would love to hear more about this program so that I can share it with the Veterans I work with.
