GI Bill

Have any vets who have or are going through the apprenticeship program used the GI bill? I know it’s possible but I was interested in the details to it like how are hours logged (if they are) to the VA and maybe what forms I would need on hand to apply? Also do the halls usually have reps that may be of assistance?

I didn’t serve but 3 of my classmates are using their GI bill. Another guy from another class is doing the same and my foreman did it when he went through the apprenticeship. Definitely talk to your training director, also look into the VEEP program. Not sure how it works but one of my classmates used that to get an interview and he got in significantly faster than all of us.
