Saddleback College VETS Program

Last week, we had the privilege to send three of our students to represent the Saddleback Veterans Club at the SVA Regional Summit! The Chapter Leaders were here with the techniques, resources and tactics to excel in managing a thriving student organization.

The curriculum provided strategic planning and training to attendees to ensure knowledge and skills are passed on to the next generation of veterans. The program allowed us to collaborate with like-minded individuals from our region to expand our network and peer-support, enhancing our educational and career growth for success!
