Students who are currently serving in the military or are veterans interested in using their benefits, must work with the VA coordinator to ensure that all information is turned in by the deadlines set forth by the VA and GMCA. If you have Military Educational Benefits and plan to use them at GMCA, please provide a copy of your DD-214. If you are currently active duty, a copy of your military ID card or your most recent LES will be sufficient. The VA coordinator also has information and support for veterans who are unsure of what benefits they are eligible for. Additionally, if a veteran chooses to use their Ch31, or Ch33 benefits, GMCA will work with the student (for up to 90 days after certification of enrollment) to ensure that no penalties are incurred by the student from GMCA while waiting for payment by the VA.
The Greater Michigan Construction Academy facilitates opportunities for career growth in the construction industry through 11 continuing education programs targeting craft workers, foremen, supervisors, project managers, superintendents and company management. Providing such programs is important to the construction industry to achieve knowledgeable employees and a safe work environment.
