What Are VA Education Benefits?

VA Education Benefits are programs that help eligible Veterans, service members, National Guard and Reserve members, and in some cases qualified dependents pay for school or job training. These benefits can be used for approved degree programs, vocational training, certifications, and other career-focused education pathways.

At ACT, the most relevant VA funding paths are the Post-9/11 GI Bill® and Veteran Readiness & Employment (VR&E). If you qualify, these benefits may help cover approved training costs so you can build skills for a civilian career without paying everything out of pocket yourself.

Depending on the benefit you’re using, support may include tuition and fees, books and supplies, housing payments, and other approved education-related costs. Coverage depends on your eligibility, benefit chapter, and approved training plan.
