As always, our Local Veteran Employment Representatives and Career Services Consultants will be on sight overseeing sessions, and assisting with the registration and data entry into Employ Florida to ensure a smooth process for our local veterans. We are proud to continue serving the Central Florida veteran community and to play an integral part in their success.
