VA Benefits & Veterans Education Programs at The Code Academy
The Code Academy has been approved by the State Approving Agency to train eligible veterans. We are proud to support the men and women who have served our country by providing access to high-quality IT certification training through VA educational benefits.
The Department of Veterans (DVA) requires each applicant for VA Educational benefits be formally accepted to an approved curriculum (program of study) before initial certification of attendance can be sent to the DVA.
All forms necessary for application for educational benefits are available at The Code Academy Career Center. Application requirements for educational benefits vary from program to program. Your application package must be complete. For additional information, contact The Code Academy’s Veterans Specialist.
