The site has tips for employees searching for information on credentials they need to launch a civilian career. For example, if you're a radio operator in the Army and you want to know what kind of credentials you need to get a similar civilian job, this site provides a good first step in answering this question.
The site also has information for employers interested in hiring former military employees. For example, it offers details on military training and experience and veterans' qualifications, including overviews of major occupational specialties and most popular career fields sought by transitioning military personnel.
