Abstract

Since Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) 1 announced a robust education and training subsidy for Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) Veterans, there has been an increased interest on the part of academic institutions in exploring and developing tailored programming for this unique group of students. This VAC sponsorship enables Veterans to be financially supported during the pursuit of a college diploma, university degree, or other recognized courses and programs. Coupled with a renewed public awareness of the well-being of CAF service members, Fanshawe College in London, Ontario, Canada, decided to pursue a program that supports the post-secondary education of military-connected learners.
