HigherVets is dedicated to placing 10,000 Veterans in the Business Aviation industry. We work tirelessly to provide support resources and training, giving Veterans the boost they need to thrive.

We believe in the potential of every Veteran, and we're committed to ensuring they have the opportunities they deserve. Your journey with us is just the beginning of a successful and fulfilling career in aviation.

Partner with us and let's soar to new heights together. The sky's the limit for our Veterans.

HigherVets envisions a future where every military aviation professional transitions seamlessly from military service to civilian careers, flourishing in the business aviation industry. After more than two decades of global conflict, millions of Americans have served with distinction, and it is our duty to reciprocate their commitment by providing robust support during their transition. 

Our executive team, which includes experienced business aviation professionals and veterans themselves, understands the exceptional skills and discipline veterans bring to the workforce. Despite this, veterans often encounter significant hurdles during their transition to civilian life. These challenges include translating specialized military skills into civilian job qualifications, adapting to a new work environment and culture, and coping with the loss of a supportive and cohesive community. 

Transitioning from the military is more than a career change; it signifies the departure from a tightly-knit network and a structured support system that has been a cornerstone of their professional and personal lives. HigherVets is committed to bridging this gap and addressing these challenges head-on. We provide comprehensive support designed to meet the diverse needs of transitioning veterans. Our program includes targeted instruction in resume writing, interview techniques, and translating military experience into civilian terms. 

In addition to these practical skills, we recognize the importance of mental health and financial stability in the transition process. Our services include access to mental health counseling and financial literacy training, ensuring veterans have the tools and resources needed to manage the emotional and financial aspects of their new civilian life. We also offer job search assistance through our network of industry sponsors, connecting veterans with opportunities that align with their skills and aspirations. 

Our group-based courses are designed to replicate the camaraderie and peer support that veterans are accustomed to. By learning and transitioning together, veterans can lean on each other for support, fostering a sense of community that eases the transition process. We believe that by understanding and leveraging the in-depth technical training and leadership experience veterans possess, we can help them successfully navigate the civilian job market. 

Veterans bring unparalleled professionalism, resilience, and a wealth of experience from their military roles—whether as pilots, maintenance technicians, air traffic controllers, or flight attendants. At HigherVets, we are dedicated to harnessing these strengths, helping veterans translate their military expertise into successful civilian careers, and making a meaningful impact in the business aviation industry. Our mission is to ensure that every veteran not only transitions successfully but thrives in their new professional environment.
