The Solar Ready Vets Fellowships are implemented by Hiring Our Heroes. The Fellowship connects transitioning service members with solar employers for on-the-job experience in leadership and corporate roles, offering access to a natural recruitment pipeline of the best and brightest transitioning military talent as they explore civilian career options. Highly qualified transitioning service members are placed with solar industry employers for 12 weeks of on-the-job training, intended to lead to employment. There is no cost to employers or fellows to participate. As the Fellowship is a Department of Defense SkillBridge program, fellows are still on active duty and will continue to receive their military salaries and benefits through the 12 weeks.
