SkillBridge
Industry Partner
Copper River is proud to partner with the DoD SkillBridge program. This program is an opportunity for service members to gain valuable civilian work experience and training through internships as they approach their separation date. Separating Service members can be granted up to 180 days of permissive duty to focus solely on training full-time with approved industry partners after unit commander provides written authorization and approval.
Real World Opportunity
Copper River offers real-world training and work experience in the fields of Construction Services, Marine Manufacturing, Cyber Security solutions, IT and Software Development, and Business Professional Services. Our SkillBridge program can help service members bridge the gap between the end of service and the beginning of their civilian careers.
Let's Go
For Service members, SkillBridge provides an invaluable chance to work and learn in civilian career areas while still receiving their military compensation and benefits. For Copper River, SkillBridge is an opportunity to engage with the world’s most highly trained and motivated people and look for opportunities to integrate them into our existing workforce.
