Studies have shown that 83% of returning military are worried about fitting into the workplace, while 33% of employers are actively recruiting veterans. To rid themselves of the fear, veterans need to know their soft skills. Being Job Ready will improve their hire-ability and prepare them to advance in their chosen career.
A 13 video lesson program called Business SoftSkills Military Edition helps prepare those military that are transitioning to civilian life get the advantage they need. The 5 ½ hour course goes beyond knowing how to write a resume. These lessons will train you on becoming business savvy, knowing proper email writing, phone etiquette, how to become a super customer service person, what the employer expects from you, finding the career that is right for you, and much more. All the lessons have a 20-question test and include a student guide with lots of additional support information.
The video lessons are taught by business people using role-playing to reinforce what is being described in the videos. The first lesson explains how to use their military training to their advantage and how to adapt in the business world. The lesson continues telling the veteran not to call everyone at work Sir or Ma'm, and to drop other military jargon like "Roger."
Interested veterans wanting to learn and improve their soft skills have a choice to either see only the videos on a pay-per-view site at: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/military, or those who want the entire video lessons with all the documentation (Student Workbook, tests, reference cards, etc.) should go to: http://getsoftskillsnow.com/course/category.php?id=2 and choose the Job Readiness – Military Edition.
