Pursuing a new path in the digital world of media
In a heartwarming tale of perseverance and skillful craftsmanship, Marc Fraley, a veteran, has found success in the realm of digital media, thanks to the Veteran Rapid Retraining Assistance Program (VRRAP). This U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs initiative empowers eligible veterans like Marc to quickly enter high-demand occupations, offering up to 12 months of training.
However, the search results do not explicitly mention VRRAP or list which educational institutions are approved under this program. The results include information on other veteran education and rehabilitation programs, but they do not contain details specific to VRRAP or its approved institutions.
From known government sources, VRRAP typically approves a variety of educational institutions such as community colleges, vocational schools, and some public/private institutions that offer programs leading to jobs in high-demand fields. Eligibility and approved schools can usually be found through the Department of Veterans Affairs website or specific VRRAP resources.
Marc Fraley, a graduate of the UC in Digital Media at our institution, discovered the program through the VRRAP. During his time at the institution, he found the flexibility beneficial, allowing him to balance his studies with his other commitments. His hard work and dedication paid off when his instructor praised his professional-level work on a DVD cover project in his Photoshop I course.
Post-graduation, Marc has been busy freelancing for local clients, utilising his digital media skills. He has taken on various projects, including designing marketing postcards for an independent information technology business. His creative skills and business knowledge have been put to good use, resulting in satisfied clients and a growing portfolio.
Marc's passion for digital media is evident in his work, which he showcases on his Behance, YouTube, Instagram, and Tik Tok profiles. He advises other veterans not to give up on their passions and to keep their skills sharp in between jobs. Marc's story is a testament to the power of education and the opportunities that programs like VRRAP can provide.
Our institution takes pride in offering Digital Media degree and certificate programs, as detailed on the digital media majors page. We believe in empowering individuals like Marc to reach their full potential and make a positive impact in their communities.
For more information on approved institutions for VRRAP, the best approach is to consult the official VA website or the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs education benefits page, which maintains current lists of eligible schools under VRRAP.
