Besides supporting veterans gain employment, the programme provides information for training providers and employers interested in training and recruiting ex-service personnel.Western Europe director at CompTIA, said:Military professionals often have strong business,communication and technical skills and a good work ethic,which are all much in demand in the IT industry.There are a wide range of jobs for which someone with military training and leadership skills would be a perfect fit.
He added: We believe the problem has been that,until now,there has been nothing that clearly outlines the opportunities,then helps them train and certify the technical skills they need to make the transition.We believe this is a real missed opportunity both for the IT industry, which needs great people,and for hard-working military leavers who want to contribute to society back home.
