**“After 21 years of service in the Army, I decided to retire and take a different path through the VTEC program. As part of my CSP, I wanted to challenge myself by learning a new skill—and this program looked intriguing enough for me to give it a shot.

​

What I appreciated most about VTEC was the number of on-the-job training opportunities. Being able to learn hands-on and truly understand how to carry out these responsibilities has prepared me for the future in ways I never expected.”**
