SkillBridge for employers
SkillBridge, a Department of War (DoW) program, lets a service-member train with a civilian employer during their final 180 days of service, with command approval. The service-member stays on active duty pay and benefits throughout.
SAVI is a Department of Defense SkillBridge-approved organization, and we know the federal benefits side of the transition, which most providers do not.
Already an approved provider
The service-members in your program are deciding which federal benefits they keep and which they walk away from, often while they train with you. SAVI brings federal benefits education to transitioning service-members, and SAVI Benefitsâ„ trains the staff who support them.
Want to become a provider
An employer has two routes: apply directly through the SkillBridge employer portal to become an approved provider, or work with an already-approved partner organization that handles application and placement. More than 3,000 providers are approved as of 2026, and vetting requirements tightened this year. Even with approval, a command can still decline a specific placement.
SAVI does not approve employers or run their applications. Start with the official sources below.

What Veterans say about SAVI
"There are many companies and organizations who claim to help vets and are free. But this organization is that and more. They provide a tailored experience that doesn't feel rushed. They don't make you feel like a number or that you're bothering them. They truly make you believe you are their most important client. I highly recommend this program for all transitioning veterans. They help not only your but if you have a family they care about connecting you with programs that benefit them as well."
Jackie Fair, Google review "SAVI helped walk me from 22 years of naval service into retirement transition. They helped me navigate my final paperwork in the navy, helped get me set up on VA appointments, and ultimately helped me complete my first VA claim. I was awarded 90% on my first attempt, awarded 2 weeks after retirement. I received my DD-214 on my first day of retirement. These conversations are invaluable and ensure my successful transition back into civilian life. Thank you, SAVI!"
