For Veterans

Built to meet counselor standards.

Forge Protocol is designed around the frameworks VA VR&E counselors, TAP advisors, and workforce program managers use to evaluate career readiness. The outputs — resume, KSA narratives, OPM compliance review, and funding request letters — are built to the same standards counselors apply, so your documents are ready for their review.

TAP Program — DoD
