Coming Soon! Veterans to Receive Reimbursement for Safety Training |
 |
| Active duty military personnel, veterans, and their family members who complete the
Certified Occupational Safety Specialist (COSS®) course will be pleased to learn that they may be eligible for partial reimbursement of the cost of the class through
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). These reimbursements apply to any eligible recipient who took the COSS course after January 1, 2008.
|
|
The VA has agreed to reimburse eligible COSS graduates up to $1185 if they apply for education benefits within a year of taking the course. The final details of the agreement between the VA and COSS are forthcoming and will be announced on the COSS website at
www.coss.net. General information about VA reimbursement for educational benefits for veterans is available at the VA website at
www.gibill.va.gov. Please be advised that you must meet certain qualifications set forth by the VA in order to seek the reimbursement.

|
If you think you might qualify for reimbursement, you must contact Beth Gordon at (225) 282-3289, or
bgordon@safetylca.org, before seeking reimbursement. Your name will be added to our list of potential VA reimbursements, and you will be contacted by a COSS representative once the details are finalized.
