In Recognition of Challenges Faced by Military Spouses — Connecticut by the Numbers
CTDOL’s Office of Apprenticeship Training employs a designated liaison for veterans, accessible as a veterans’ point of contact on the Veterans’ Services and Apprenticeship pages on CTDOL’s website, the Connecticut State Department of Consumer Protection website and PSI’s occupational testing website (a third-party administrator for occupational licensing exams). This liaison reviews DD214s, Joint Services Transcripts and other military certifications for credit.
Effectiveness of Existing Law
The agency’s Office of Apprenticeship Training has been reviewing veteran requests for a military training evaluation for 20 years and has maintained effective relationships with the U.S. Navy Subbase, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, state Department of Veterans Affairs, state Office of Higher Education, and other veteran partners.
Given these relationships, it is our perspective that existing law appears to be effective in addressing the challenges that service members face when applying for an occupational or professional license, a certificate, a registration or educational credit upon discharge from military service or relocating to the state.
