Veterans - License & Certification - Purpose
Purpose

The purpose of Ohio's Licensing and Certification program is to aide separating military personnel in converting their military training and experience to a license or certification needed for a civilian career. We who have served should not have to be retrained for a civilian career for which the military has already trained us and provided extensive experience. By obtaining a civilian career license or certification, a military veteran may attain a higher economic living standard. For more information on how Ohio Department of Job & Family Services may be able to help you in gaining a civilian license or certification contact your local Veteran's Employment Representative.
