RESULTS OF THIS RESEARCH ARE PUBLISHED IN REAL TIME VIA INTERACTIVE DATA VISUALS THAT ILLUSTRATE PIVOTAL STUDENT VETERAN DECISIONS WITHIN THE EDUCATIONAL LIFE CYCLE. THE GOAL IS TO PROVIDE VETERANS FACING A DECISION AT ANY POINT IN THEIR EDUCATIONAL LIFECYCLE WITH AN INSTRUMENT TO EXPLORE AND EVALUATE DIFFERENT OUTCOMES BASED ON THE COLLECTIVE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE OF THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION, WE MAINTAIN A STRONG COMMITMENT TO MEASURING THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT (ROI) OF THE POST-9/11 GI BILL; THE FOUNDATION OF THIS WORK IS THE NATIONAL VETERAN EDUCATION SUCCESS TRACKER (NVEST) PROJECT A PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP LED BY SVA IN COLLABORATION WITH THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS AND THE NATIONAL STUDENT CLEARINGHOUSE.

Desc	CHAPTER SERVICES AND PROGRAMS A DEDICATED NETWORK OF CHAPTERS AND CHAPTER LEADERS ARE THE LIFEBLOOD OF SVA. EVERY DAY THESE PASSIONATE LEADERS WORK TO PROVIDE THE NECESSARY RESOURCES, NETWORK SUPPORT, AND ADVOCACY TO ENSURE STUDENT VETERANS CAN EFFECTIVELY CONNECT, EXPAND THEIR SKILLS, AND ULTIMATELY ACHIEVE THEIR GREATEST POTENTIAL, WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT PEER-TO-PEER SUPPORT FACILITATES POST-SECONDARY SUCCESS. THESE CHAPTERS ARE BUILT UPON THE GRASSROOTS EFFORTS OF INDIVIDUAL STUDENT VETERANS WHO RECOGNIZE THE NEED FOR A COMMUNITY OF SUPPORT ON THEIR CAMPUS. CHAPTER SERVICES AND PROGRAMS FROM THE NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS SUPPORT THE CREATION, SUSTAINMENT, AND GROWTH OF CHAPTERS. WE ADVISE ON THE CREATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A STRATEGIC PLAN TO HELP CHAPTERS FOCUS THEIR EFFORTS AND ESTABLISH CLEAR PRIORITIES WITH A FOCUS ON UNDERSTANDING THEIR UNIQUE CAMPUS COMMUNITY. WE SHARE LEADING PRACTICES AND FACILITATE MENTORSHIP VIA OUR CHAPTER CONSULTATION SESSIONS. WE ALSO OFFER ONLINE TRAINING FOR CAREER DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN WEBINAR-BASED SESSIONS. WE CONNECT OUR CHAPTERS WITH EACH OTHER TO PLAN REGIONAL EVENTS AND ENGAGE WITH STUDENT VETERANS ON ADVOCACY AND POLICY CHANGES AT THE CAMPUS, STATE, AND NATIONAL LEVELS. FINALLY, WE WORK DIRECTLY WITH CHAPTERS TO HELP MEMBERS BUILD MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS WITH COMMUNITY, BUSINESS, AND INDUSTRY LEADERS.	Desc
