Via Military - Microsoft Offers Transition Program: Service members stationed in California and Texas who are transitioning from the military are now eligible for the Microsoft Software & Systems Academy. The 16-week program provides IT training to eligible U.S. active-duty transitioning service members, and is now operating at Camp Pendleton in California and Fort Hood in Texas. The program was first launched in 2013 at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington, where a third class is now enrolled in the program. Participants are taught by professors from Saint Martins University in Washington and Central Texas College, using a customized Microsoft IT Academy curriculum. Microsoft employees volunteer as mentors by connecting to the class through Lync and Skype. Through interactive lessons and mock interviews, participants receive training to help prepare them for the final step: the opportunity to interview at Microsoft. For eligibility requirements, service members should contact the education centers at participating bases or visit WeStillServe/MSSA for general guidelines.
