The VETS office has introduced an on-line presentation, Creating a Statewide Veterans' Training Program, to help DVOP and LVER staff create veterans' training programs in their states. The information below is from the website:

The objective of this web presentation is to help state and other local Department of Labor employees implement effective training and job placement activities for veterans.

This presentation will be particularly useful to Local Veterans' Employment Representatives (LVERs) and Disabled Veterans Outreach Program (DVOP) staff who are located in state employment service local offices and assist veterans with counseling, testing, and training/employment opportunities.

This tool will provide LVERs and DVOPs with a sound proven methodology for developing veterans training programs.

The site leads the user through the entire process of setting up a program, from initiating a project, selecting target jobs, preparing a grant, creating a board, screening applicants, identifying training partners, matching veterans and jobs and evaluating projects.

Additionally, there is information on how to use and navigate through the site.
