The Above & Beyond program provides guidance to wounded service members pursuing reintegration into the civilian sector. The objective is to explore next step options for those interested in a civilian or military career, higher education/advanced training, or a small business startup.
The program consists of one-on-one mentoring, weekend seminars, and follow-up coaching, all specifically designed around participants' individual objectives. Regardless of the service member's experience level or skill set, this program will assist in targeting personal and professional short- and long-term goals and outlining a step-by-step plan by which to achieve them.
Some of the topics explored and mastered will be: identifying strengths and skills; translating skills into civilian speak ; practicing networking techniques; preparing for interviews; writing resumes; participating in shadow a professional days; understanding corporate etiquette and e-mail protocol; purchasing new dress for success attire; creating a personalized basic budget plan. Additional instructional segments will be added for those pursuing further education and/or small business startup.
