About VCE
Veterans for Career Education (VCE) is an advocacy campaign founded by veterans and proudly supported by Career Education Colleges and Universities (CECU).
On May 23, 2019 military veteran students, alumni, faculty and staff from Career Education Colleges and Universities schools traveled to Washington, DC to speak with their elected representatives in Congress about the importance of protecting veterans’ access to career education.
While in Washington, DC, nearly 100 veterans established Veterans for Career Education (VCE). The veterans agreed to adopt the following mission statement: VCE supports the right of veterans to use their earned education benefits to gain career skills at the college or institution of their choice.
