What is VRT?

“After years serving in the military and over a decade in the corporate training world, I found myself needing to complete my education and forge a new career path. Not impressed with the options I found, I leveraged key resources from top industry leaders to provide a high-quality training environment that meets the unique needs of our veterans.”

H. Bennett
Chief Training Officer, Founder - VRT,
U.S. Army Veteran

While we are in the military, we become subject matter experts in our respective fields, yet all too often when we get out, we are challenged with being told we only qualify for “entry-level” jobs. We are told we don’t have the appropriate certifications or education to transfer to the civilian world.

That’s why we created Veterans Re-entry Training. Leveraging our staff's collective professional training, vast information technology experience, as well as our extensive Business acumen for both the Corporate and Federal environments, allows us to offer world-class training programs for our Veterans.

VRT partners with key business community leaders and hiring managers, to identify the key competencies hiring managers are looking for in their candidates.

Student Testimonials

"The training VRT offers is very inspirational, energizing, brings lots of ideas and combines substantial in-depth knowledge with case studies, learning from experience and a focus on practice. The team at VRT is able to take complex Information Technology training, which can be extremely complex and a little unnerving at points, and break it down so almost anybody can understand it. Having this well-balanced composition of participants contributed to interesting and focused discussions and exchanges."

"Among other things, VRT offers valuable technical instruction, preparation for and assistance with certification attainment, and support in finding employment in IT positions. Probably the most valuable element of the VRT experience is that veterans get this assistance in changing careers in a supportive environment with people who understand the unique nature of military culture, because they have been there themselves. Service members returning to civilian life who are interested in IT careers will definitely find themselves at home with VRT!"

"The VRT program has been a great experience. The way this program groups you with other veterans who have different levels of experience with the material you’re all learning is great, as it gives you another resource to help you learn, understand the material and pass your exams. The trainers at VRT are incredibly helpful, not only with getting the material down and getting through the training, but also with being very understanding and accommodating when it comes to life issues that come up."

Andrew H.

"After meeting with VRT counselors, I was motivated and ready to participate in the Veterans Re-entry Training Cyber Security course. After months of diligently studying course material and classroom discussion I took the CompTIA 901 exam and failed it, not once, but twice, with the same score. I was literally in a sunken place. I shut down my normal daily routines and seriously focused on studying and reviewing the course objectives, practice tests and A+ subject matter resources while attending weekly classroom instruction and lab hours with VRT staff. It all came together with a CompTIA 901 exam passing score. Stay focused."

Harry G.

"I started the VRT program without any prior knowledge of the cyber security world. As I move forward in the program, I feel confident that I will be well prepared to not only secure employment, but to also expand my knowledge further in the coming months. This program has an abundance of not only great study resources but also provides like-minded Veterans an outlet who still hear the call of duty and want to answer it."

"The skills and training that I am getting at VRT are what will make me successful in the demanding field of cyber security. The instructors are always present, knowledgeable and seriously care about my education and career path. I feel like the resources and cyber tools offered by VRT are second to none."

Christopher D.
U.S. Air Force

"I was in the Air Force for over 16 years and I can honestly say, I have met very few people over the years that add up to the guys at the Sacramento VRT. One of the most valuable elements of the VRT experience is that veterans receive assistance in changing careers in a supportive environment with people who understand the unique nature of military culture. When we talk about supportive environment, I do mean supportive. The VRT stands out on how supportive they are. They are constantly encouraging all participants, no matter what. To me, the Sacramento VRT and its team give us the courage to continue and that is what really counts!"

"The VRT program has helped me have a smoother transition in to civilian schooling, while still having other ex-service members to lean on. VRT has a great atmosphere and the instructors are great to work with and are open to suggestions on how to improve performance and study groups, which makes the experience that much more enjoyable. If you are looking for a career in the tech world, I highly recommend attending this program."
