DOL TAP Expands into the Benelux Region of Europe

by Diane Miller
NAMS Vice President of Training

The Department of Labor, Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS) is continuing efforts in the global expansion of TAP Employment Workshop delivery.

Starting in January 2006, VETS is poised to offer TAP Employment Workshops in the Benelux region of Europe. Through this expansion, TAP Employment Workshops will be provided at military bases in Brussels, Supreme Headquarters of the Allied Powers of Europe (SHAPE) in Belgium and Schinnen in the Netherlands.

Through VETS’ contract services provided by Native American Management Services (NAMS), TAP Employment Workshop delivery is being coordinated with the Army Community Services Centers (ACS) and their Employment Readiness staff. A site visit to all three locations was conducted in late November with workshop delivery beginning in January 2006. NAMS will provide a 3-day TAP Employment Workshop.

VETS and NAMS look forward to providing services to transitioning service members and their spouses in the Benelux region.
