Serving veterans and military families
This November, Microsoft is proud to celebrate Veterans Day and Military Family Month. As part of our ongoing commitment to support the military community, we want to ensure that veterans, service members and their families have access to the skills and knowledge they need to obtain and retain jobs that provide financial stability and the opportunity for personal growth.
Microsoft works with partners to provide technology and skills training to empower veterans and military families to succeed in a digital future.
