In this article, we\u2019ll look at how this change went into effect and how V School is <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/veterans?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">helping veterans relaunch their careers<\/a> today.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"in-article\">\n<p class=\"cta-font\">V School\u2019s mastery-based model prioritizes competency over time, allowing students to build a strong understanding of tech skills at a realistic speed.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/v-school\/apply?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma&amp;month=2021-08\" class=\"cta-button\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Talk to V School today.<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<br>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-five-years-of-gi-bill-approval\">Five Years of GI Bill\u00ae Approval<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>V School opened its doors in 2013 but it wasn\u2019t until three years later that it made a groundbreaking move that makes coding education more accessible than ever to veterans. It all began when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/kacie-jacobson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Kacie Jacobson<\/a>, a former sergeant who was considering V School at the time, posed one question: \u201cCan I use my GI Bill\u00ae benefits to learn at your school?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-collaboration-like-no-other\">A Collaboration Like No Other<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time, GI Bill\u00ae benefits were not a legitimate payment option for V School but instead of turning a potential student away, the school asked back: \u201cHow can we help you? How can we be a school that offers exactly that?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those questions set a tedious yet important process in motion. Kacie, determined to use her hard-earned GI Bill\u00ae to learn new technical skills, volunteered to get the paperwork ready for the US Department of Veteran Affairs (VA).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI did a lot of research and I was very persistent,\u201d she said. \u201cI got the paperwork together for V School to apply for VA\u2019s approval so they can accept GI Bill\u00ae benefits. I handed everything over to them and V School did the work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cInitially, I had to take V School\u2019s word that they would see the process through so I actually paid my own tuition,\u201d Kacie said. \u201cWhen they succeeded in getting VA\u2019s approval, my GI Bill\u00ae was paid and I got my money back. The rest is history.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After graduating from her Web Development program, Kacie stayed on with V School on as the Head of Veteran Affairs, where she consulted other veterans on the admissions process among others.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-gi-bill-work-at-v-school\">How Does GI Bill\u00ae Work At V School?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI helped other veterans like myself navigate the process; basically how to use their GI Bill\u00ae benefits to pay for their education at V School. It\u2019s a very simple process,\u201d Kacie said. She explained that the GI Bill\u00ae generally includes tuition, living stipend, and other expenses. However, this may vary per veteran\u2019s contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how veterans can use their GI Bill\u00ae to fund a V School program:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Check with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.va.gov\/education\/eligibility\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">US Department of Veteran Affairs<\/a> if you are eligible for VA education benefits. You can apply for the benefits on the website.<br><\/li><li>Identify the details of your GI Bill\u00ae benefits and submit proof of your eligibility to V School.<br><\/li><li>V School forwards the relevant documents including proof of tuition fees to VA. Once approved, VA will disburse the requested amount directly to the school. Enrollment begins whenever the student is ready.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cV School has made it so easy. After getting the VA approval [to accept the GI Bill\u00ae], lots of veterans started coming to V School. They get good jobs after the program, too, which is great,\u201d Kacie, who has gone on to explore roles like QA engineer, lead business analyst, and web developer since V School, said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-helping-veterans-make-a-smoother-transition-into-tech\">Helping Veterans Make a Smoother Transition into Tech<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Establishing a new payment option may seem like a daunting task, but for V School, it was a necessary move that is in tandem with its motto: \u201cOffering the best possible curriculum and support that leads to the best possible outcomes.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>V School added, \u201cIt allows our veteran community to receive the training they need to land a successful tech career after their service. We want to do everything we can to return the help they&#8217;ve given.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-teaching-skills-that-will-lead-to-employment\">Teaching Skills That Will Lead to Employment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>V School is unique in that it employs a <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/responsive-learning?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">responsive learning model<\/a>. Instead of the more conventional cohort-based model, V School students move through the modules at a speed that they\u2019re comfortable with. In other words, you advance based on your mastery level. If you feel like you\u2019re not ready to move forward, you can choose to repeat a module at no extra cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason? Everyone is unique in their background, life circumstances, and experiences. \u201cIn order for the conventional model to work out, everything in your life has to line up. When life happens\u2014as life does\u2014you may get derailed while the school moves on with the next topic on the curriculum because there is a schedule for them to follow&#8230;We know that\u2019s not what students are buying, we know they want a career and we\u2019re here to help.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Programs are designed to be beginner-friendly, made to be digestible by students with zero coding experience\u2014career changers like veterans included.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At V School, students have two options: <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/courses\/development\/?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Web Development<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/courses\/design\/?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">UX\/UI Design.<\/a> Both programs have six modules to complete and are riddled with hands-on projects to help students amass a wealth of portfolio materials by the time they graduate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, V School only has one goal: to help you <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/how-vs-compares?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">land a rewarding job<\/a>. As the school said, \u201cYou officially graduate when you found a job that you are happy with, even if that job is two, three, or 10 jobs away from your first tech job.\u201d Until then, V School is ready to offer advice and support during your job search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alumni also have lifelong access to V School\u2019s curriculum and career team which includes assistance with technical interviews, resumes, and networking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-unlocking-opportunities-in-tech-for-hundreds-of-vets\">Unlocking Opportunities in Tech for Hundreds of Vets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2016, V School has helped 114 veterans gain the skills they need to break into tech. Among them is Kacie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recollecting her first attempt at coding, Kacie said it was \u201cpretty hard\u201d but it sparked a new interest and so she was determined to get better. She put in over 12 hours of learning every day and was able to complete the modules in just three months.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI felt a little behind at first but the instructors were fantastic. They\u2019re always there when I need help. If not in person, they\u2019re available over email. They\u2019re very responsive. The commitment to my success is by far the best experience I&#8217;ve ever had in any kind of educational facility,\u201d Kacie said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For others like Taamir Ransome, V School is a place where they get to turn their passion into something bigger. After his deployment, Taamir dabbled into cyber security and computer science but he was still missing the right guidance to pursue tech as a career. After winning <a href=\"https:\/\/vschool.io\/blog\/mybaseguide-scholarship-winner\/?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">the MyBaseGuide + AHRN full scholarship<\/a>, his future is now taking shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI know what I want to do. I have a whole bunch of ideas in my head, I just don&#8217;t have the funds or the know-how to actually do it,\u201d he said. \u201cCompanies will hire me once I do have that and become a 1099 guy for five or six really big companies that support the military and be able to give my knowledge and give back to the career field.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-veterans-helping-other-veterans\">Veterans Helping Other Veterans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At V School, the support extends beyond the classroom. Veterans who have graduated from V School have taken the initiative to form a Community Mentor group offering support to other students who are starting their V School journey. These mentors also provide valuable feedback to the school and act as brand advocates for V School.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mentors will walk students through the three stages of V School: skills, experience, and career. They provide weekly video check-ins with students, daily direct messaging, personalized goal planning, custom strategy and timelines, expert career-prep coaching, proven LinkedIn tips and tricks, and job-winning resume and cover letter guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nathan Sutherland, a mentor and an Advisory Boardmember at V School, said the most rewarding part about mentoring is being a driving force that helps people change their lives through their careers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen people go into the military, they leave their own identities behind and take on the challenges of new, unique military roles. When they return to civilian life, they have to unlearn many parts of their job and try to become citizens again. The journey of finding yourself again can be difficult. I found a renewed appreciation for our veteran\u2019s sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI was working with recent alumni who said to me, right after being hired, \u2018Thank you. Thank you so much. You changed my life\u2019. That\u2019s the kind of stuff that makes me eager to wake up and do it all again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-launch-your-tech-career-with-v-school\">Launch Your Tech Career With V School<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>V School is focused on helping committed and talented individuals\u2014regardless of background, experience, and life circumstance\u2014explore exciting roles in tech. It strives to eliminate all barriers to entry, as evident in Kacie\u2019s story. What started as a simple question unfurled into a new financing system benefiting all veterans looking to <a href=\"https:\/\/calendly.com\/v-school\/apply?utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=careerkarma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">build a new career through V School<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere is not a reason that we can\u2019t work with you,\u201d V School said. \u201cAs long as you have the aptitude to learn to code and you\u2019re willing to do the pre-course work and you can score high enough on the assessment and get accepted, we\u2019ll find a way to fund it.
