Technology Security Associates, AVIAN Engineering, and Tekla Research are pleased to announce the establishment of the Patuxent River Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business Council. The purpose of the council is to:
- Develop and implement programs to recruit, train, mentor, prepare and place qualified veterans into the NAVAIR community, in support of NAVAIR Strategic Plan.
- Establish a repeatable program model that can be exported to other industries and the community.
- Develop relationships with DoD and non-DoD agencies and organizations to locate and coordinate funding, scholarships and other resources for transitioning veterans.
- Inform and educate the DoD, state and local government community on the Service Disabled Veterans Small Business Program.
To implement the first two goals, the Council has established a program we are calling Veteran’s Education and Training Bridge, or VETbridgeâ„¢. Open to all companies (not just SDVOSBs), VETbridgeâ„¢ identifies training tracks in the core NAVAIR areas of Acquisition/Program Management, Financial Management, Engineering, Logistics, IT, International Programs, and T&E, using DAU and local higher education curricula, to help prepare transitioning veterans for employment in the NAVAIR CSS workforce.
The Council is holding an informational session for interested companies at Technology Security Associates facility on May 16 at 3:30 p.m. All local companies are cordially invited. Please RSVP to Lee Bradshaw, 301-866-0295, [email protected].
Technology Security Associates is located at 22685 Three Notch Rd, California MD 20619 (on Rt 235, southbound side, 2 doors south of the Sheetz). See you then.
