Abstract

The Department of Defense is reporting a continuing decline in enlisted military member tuition assistance use. While the aviation, aerospace and defense industries are pleading for additional employees with military and academic skill sets. Academia has a relatively new and innovative solution that accepts military members “where they are” academically and rewards them for their service. Preliminary results from a “military friendly” degree program was presented; beginning with student matriculation through graduation. Outcomes are applicable to Active Duty, Guard, Reserve, Dependents and Veterans.
