It is important to determine if your education choices align with your future career goals. Whether you stay in the military or choose to transition, your education choices can have a major impact on your future success. Think about these questions:

  • Will the degree meet the requirements for advancement in the military? Will it help get the civilian job I want?
  • Is there a demand in the job market for the skills I’ll get in my chosen education program?
  • Will the degree and school I choose be widely accepted in my preferred career field?
  • Does the education path align with my interests, values, and skills?

With Kuder Journey, a professional military education counselor can help you answer these questions. Create a Kuder account and then be sure to contact an education counselor.
