Military GI Bill


Military GI BillLet's talk about military gi bill. Are you aware that veterans, Reservists and National Guard members, who are employed as registered apprentices, might be permitted to collect GI Bill payments in addition to their regular full-time wages?

It's hard to believe, but it's true! And it's one of the least known advantages of these exceptional military programs. Just like a university student can collect a monthly G.I. Bill payment for classroom attendance, so can a registered apprentice who learns a trade on-the-job.

Montgomery G.I. Bill payments for apprenticeship programs, which generally change from one to Five years in length, can total between $2,600 and $42,000 based upon benefit eligibility.

Everyone wins when apprentices collect their military benefits; employers possess a powerful recruiting and retention tool, employees can offset their bills while working toward journeyman status, and the state benefits from the influx of federal military benefit dollars into our local economy.
