Financial Assistance Options for Military Veterans
Use Your Military Benefits for CDL Training
DriveCo can help certify service members and veterans for the GI Bill® benefits to cover the costs associated with getting an education or training in the career of their choice. As an Active Duty or Military Veteran, you may be eligible for educational benefits through the numerous GI Bill® programs available. DriveCo is approved for participation in various funding programs offered through the Veterans Administration for active service members, reservists, veterans, dependents, and spouses, each of which is administered differently depending on a person’s eligibility and duty status. These grants are designed to help recruit, train, and place veterans and their spouses in high-demand jobs in an industry that is vitally important to keep our national economy moving forward.
