“Without the dedication of our military and sacrifices made by them and their families, we would not be able to have the freedoms we do today,” said Michael Colvin, President at MedCerts. “MedCerts is honored to be selected as a Military Friendly School for 2016. We hope to assist active duty military, veterans and military spouses as they pursue education and careers in rewarding fields during their service and beyond.”

The Military Friendly School title is given not based on the question “Are you Military Friendly?” but “How Military Friendly Are You?” The Military Friendly Schools list is compiled using data broken into 10 weighted categories. “It lets the military community have certain expectations about where they’re going to put their talent, their military benefits and their hard work to bear”, says co-founder Chris Hale on the importance of defining the term Military Friendly. “It lets them know which institutions value them most, offer the best career opportunities, benefits, and career paths. Without it, institutions are able to create their own definitions around this and similar terms which can mislead military members.”

“This is a really well-organized program. I’m really happy with it…If you are not doing it and you’re a military spouse, you have to. This is a great opportunity for you to take advantage and just do it.” says Patricia on her YouTube Channel. “They are really great people and everyone that I have spoken to has been really nice. I would recommend this program to anyone looking into any health careers and looking to get certified in that branch.”
