Transition Services
Our human transition services empower Veterans to transform and thrive as they move from the military to their civilian life.
By combining our understanding of the military community with specific knowledge and experience, our team supports service members and their families with their transition into civilian life. We help set Veterans on a path to accomplishing future goals and enjoying success as part of the veteran community.

What We Do
As experts in military and Veteran family support, we develop and implement tailored programs focused on vocational rehabilitation, employment and career planning assistance, financial counseling, benefits, and Government and external resources available to support the transition to civilian life.
We develop program curricula, courseware, command leader training, and train-the-trainer workshops and deliver services for Veteran support and transition programs.
Zeiders’ Veteran support uses proven methodologies and innovative concepts that support the full scope of the military lifecycle to develop personal resilience and improve quality of life.
How We Help
We coordinate with Military Service Organizations, Veteran Services Organizations, and community-based organizations to make appropriate and impactful referrals for maximum effectiveness on service member and family needs.
Our on-demand learning, hosted webinars, and mobile training team delivery assist transition to the private sector through results-focused programs that support military policy and meet the emerging needs of the individuals we serve.
Understanding the Need
Service members face significant challenges as they transition to the civilian sector and continue on in their future as Veterans. Not only are they facing employment needs, they may also be burdened with health issues, injuries, financial challenges, or difficulty accessing their benefits. These challenges not only impact the military members but also their spouses and children and equally impact the larger community of Reserves and National Guard.
Knowledge of these challenges is critical to providing support for the veteran community. Over 65% of Zeiders staff are military-affiliated and 25% are themselves Veterans. As a result, they understand the unique lifecycle of employment, geographic challenges, and specific stressors of this community. This expertise is the foundation of our ability to improve the quality of life for the individuals we serve.
Cultural Competency
Knowledge of meaningful education and career choices is critical to a successful transition from the military to the civilian sector. We understand how to translate military experience into civilian opportunities. Many Zeiders employees have first-hand connections with the military community and are familiar with the unique challenges faced during transition.
Our comprehensive staff training program focuses on military cultural competency and ensures that all service providers are equipped with knowledge of military demographics and military lifestyle. Our skilled professionals are trained to understand each branch of service and particularly the special needs of our Veteran community. We build on this cultural knowledge to create the trusting relationship critical for success.
