Under the Veteran Employment through Technology Education Courses (VET TEC) pilot program, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) contracts with institutions that provide training in computer programing, computer software, media application, data processing, or information services. Under those contracts, veterans who are eligible for VA education benefits can attend that training and receive monthly housing stipends while they do so. The authority to conduct the program expires in 2023, five years after the first contract was signed.
