The purpose of the program is to provide spouses help while they pursue higher education in the form of licenses, associates degrees, certifications, or other credentials that will help them pursue careers in a variety of fields that offer high demand and growth.
The program particularly wants to see military spouses pursue jobs that not only demonstrate room for employment but also will likely have jobs available near military locations. The military does offer career and education counseling that these spouses can take advantage of to help them find a program that will work well for them.
