Time Sensitive: Google Launchpad for Veterans Program

The transition from the uniform to the civilian sector is rarely a straight line. For many veterans, the skills forged in service—adaptability, strategic thinking, and resilience—are perfectly suited for the rapidly evolving tech landscape. Recognizing this potential, Google has launched an initiative designed to help veterans secure their footing in one of the most critical sectors of the modern economy: Generative AI.

​Through a collaboration between Cloud Learning Services and the Google Veterans Network (VetNet), the Google Launchpad for Veterans offers a transformative opportunity for those who have served. This program provides U.S. and Canadian military veterans and service members with a no-cost Google Cloud training and certification journey.

​Participants in this program aren't just learning foundational skills; they are positioned to be among the first to earn certification in Gen AI from Google Cloud. By breaking down financial barriers and offering targeted, high-level training, this initiative perfectly aligns with the mission of National Invest In Veterans Week—empowering the veteran community with the tools needed to build sustainable, high-impact careers.

​If you are a veteran or service member ready to pivot into the tech industry, your next mission awaits.

​Registration closes on November 11th at 1pm CST.
