OPPORTUNITIES IN THE MILITARY

A great choice if you want to serve your country, learn a skill while you earn, work in any of 4,000 occupations, save for college or attend college.
The military may be a good first job choice for you and/or a way to put aside money for college. The Armed Forces offer many training programs which prepare young men and women for civilian jobs. Pamphlets describing the variety of military training programs are available in the Career Center.
 
The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is available annually at no cost to students. It can be used alone or as part of the ASVAB Career Exploration Program to assist you in discovering your skills and possible career choices. Visit www.asvabprogram.com or ask your counselor or Ms. Vera in the Career Center. 

Online test prep for the ASVAB can be found at www.asvabprogram.com , www.military.com and http://asvabpracticetestonline.com/
