Employers that hire veterans and those seeking to expand the number of veterans in their workforce may apply for the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development’s (DWD) Vets Ready Employer Initiative. Applications for the recognition, aimed at employers that hire and retain veterans, build veteran support systems, and connect with veterans in the community, will be accepted through July 19.
DWD awards gold or silver certifications for small, medium, and large businesses, promoting employers that receive a Vets Ready recognition to veteran job seekers and community partners.
DWD partners with the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Disabled American Veterans Department of Wisconsin, the Veterans Chamber of Commerce, the Wisconsin American Legion, Employer Support of the Guard and Reserves, and the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. on the Vets Ready Employer Initiative.
