Military Spouse Jobs Programs Set to RelaunchJuly 22, 2010 The Department of Defense (DoD) has announced that it has completed a comprehensive review of the Military Spouse Career Advancement Account (MyCAA) program and will begin making the recommended changes in order to have the program prepared for its resumption target date of October 25, 2010. Officials have stated that these changes were necessary to ensure that the longevity of the program is realized. The changes are said to reestablish the original intent of the program, which is to provide the necessary assistance to the spouses of service members that are interested in pursuing portable careers. A portable career is one that is easily transferrable from location to location, such as a health care career or a career in real estate. There is an obvious necessity for this type of career preparation for military spouses, since military members are frequently transferred from one duty location to the next. This program was not intended for those individuals in pursuit of a bachelor’s or master’s degree, but a military spouse has other avenues available to them if this is the goal. For example, there are scholarships, federal grants, and the Post-9/11 GI Bill that they may utilize to complete an advanced degree. |
