Plain-English Summary

This bill would increase the amount of money the Department of Veterans Affairs pays to veterans during their first year of apprenticeship or on-the-job training programs. Veterans pursuing hands-on career training would receive higher educational assistance benefits to help cover costs during that initial year. The change aims to make it more affordable for veterans to transition into skilled trades and other career paths through apprenticeships.
