December 17, 2018

The VA Acquisition Academy (VAAA) is expanding its Warriors to Workforce (W2W) Program to help fill future VA job openings, and and as a result is accepting resumes through June for the September 2019 class.  Located in Frederick, Maryland, W2W is an internship program that prepares returning service-connected disabled Veterans for federal contracting careers.

“W2W is a successful program,” said VA Acquisition Academy Chancellor Ruby B. Harvey.  “Since its establishment in December 2011, we have administered one class of 24 Veterans each year.
