First classes of 2025
New Year, New Goals - we have a series of classes this month that are designed to help you launch and grow your own small business. TST classes are free for veterans and for military family members as well. This month, all classes are on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11:30am - 1pm.
Every class includes a free toolkit full of templates, guides, software and other resources to help you hit the ground running after class.
VetsFest & VetBizWeek
Thank you to all of our partners, vendors and supporters for making VetBizWeek & VetsFest a huge success! We helped launch 38 new veteran-owned businesses, hosted 6 training sessions, and were able to raise $30,000 at VetsFest - enough to fund free training for 5000 veterans. If you missed the livestream, it's up on YouTube.
Tst awarded 50k grant
Transition Skills Training was awarded a $50,000 grant by the Texas Veterans Commission to provide Small Business Training for veteran-owned businesses in the Lone Star State. We are now the official small business training org for veterans in the state of Texas. This year's program will include topics on Marketing, Money Management, Funding, Artificial Intelligence and more. TVC Grant funds will be used to provide free training for certified veteran-owned small businesses.
OUR MISSION
Transition Skills Training, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization providing low-cost access to skills training and education for veterans and their families, with a focus on their transition out of the military and into the civilian workforce. We provide entrepreneurial coaching, skills curriculum, access to technology, and research at no cost to the veterans we serve. We also work to educate employers on recruitment, hiring practices, and management strategies for the civilian workplace.
The Transition Hub
Launching Soon!
From the beginning, one of our goals at TST has been to build a simple online portal for veterans and their families to gain access to transition education, supports and services from anywhere, 24/7. Not just with our own programs, but to connect with other organizations and resources too. With the help of our network of incredible partners, this project is becoming a reality. Stay tuned for updates!

new book & Field Guide
We will be publishing a book this fall based on our research and proven approach for a successful transition for veterans and their families. The only way to solve the common challenges veterans face after service is to provide a solution that adapts to the specific individual. There is a proven path for success. Watch for The Transition Formula: Making the Shift From Military Service to Civilian Life, coming soon!
