“Best & Worst States for Military Retirees”

Mike Bianchi, senior director of education and career training for the Institute for Veterans and Military Families (IVMF) at Syracuse University, was interviewed by WalletHub for the article “Best & Worst States for Military Retirees.” When asked what the best economic opportunities are for military retirees, Bianchi says that often “for those looking to pursue a new career, the biggest challenge is often translating those skills and accomplishments.” “Programs like Syracuse University’s Institute for Veterans and Military Families’ Onward to Opportunity program trains and prepares military retirees and their spouses at no-cost, equipping them for success in over 40 in-demand career fields,” says Bianchi.
