Description
State employment offices help veterans find work by providing free job counseling, testing, referral and placement services. Veterans are given priority in the referral of job openings and training opportunities. The Workforce Investment Act (WIA), formerly Job Training Partnership Act (JPTA), provides for a national job training program for veterans with disabilities, Vietnam-era veterans and recently separated veterans. Job training programs may be conducted through public agencies or private non-profit agencies.
