U.S. military veterans interested in a new career in aviation may now be eligible for increased tuition and housing benefits through a new policy enacted by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. Approved applicants may now be eligible to receive up to 100 percent coverage of tuition, housing, and FAA testing expenses for attending Jeppesen Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Dispatcher Certification course training. Veterans and dependents may receive tuition assistance through Veterans Affairs benefit programs such as the Post 9/11 VA Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, and others.

Jeppesen, a unit of Boeing Flight Services and a global industry leader in navigation, operations, training, and optimization solutions, offers training for numerous careers in the aviation industry. FAA licensed dispatchers are equipped with a body of knowledge that is applicable to many aviation careers. The dispatcher plays a critical role in maintaining aviation safety and efficiency, working in Airline Operations Control (AOC) centers worldwide.
