VOC Rehab interview, Oct 11

Looon · Post by **Looon** » September 26th, 2006, 8:24 am

That's the date of my appointment to see if I ll be worthwhile for the benefit.

The alternative is for them to render me ' Totally Unemployable' due to my disabilities.

Any advice or insight would be appreciated.

Negative. My injuries have taken their toll to the point where I don't get around very well these days.

Ive worked construction as a welder since I got out, but I physically can't do it anymore.

Your good to go then for VOC Rehab. As long as you don't have a job or can't work, they will throw options at you.

I completed 3+ years a couple years ago. PM if there is anything I can help with.

I went through college with Voc Rehab. I couldn't have graduated in 4 years without it. It's one of the best programs for Veterans. Usually they will have you do research on what program you'll want to use Voc Rehab for before you have your interview. Get well informed on your program of study and how it will benefit you and you should be fine. That's my advice from having been through the process.

Good luck Rgr Luna!

I manned the VA desk while in school.....Voc Rehap(VEAP, Chpt 32, etc) is a damn good program once you get the ball rolling.

On a nother note...

LUNA: it's good to see yer drivin on despite your setbacks, dude.

The V.A. will prolly teach you 'puters (at my local V.A. hospital (the) course has mushroomed to 26 weeks - and upon graduation you receive a free brand new 'puter) and put you in charge of your own V.A. site answering emails seeing as how well you type and your use of emoticons.

I went for the testing (took two days) back in 1974 or thereabouts. I never went beyond the testing and hit the trail finding my own way.
