VETERANS!

“When I was in the military, everything was a checklist. I knew where to go, how to do it. But then I got a job as the training director at a security company and knew that I wanted to run my own business. I started 3D Security Training Solutions – and I had very little business training when I learned about the Boots to Business courses sponsored by the Small Business Administration. They taught me about bank loans and how to make a business plan. Today, 3D Security Training Solutions is dominating the New Mexico market in training, security and private investigations and has earned over a million dollars in the first five years.”

"As a 20-year Veteran, I relied on my leadership skills and training to shine through when searching for my first job out of the military. My advice for returning veterans is to have the confidence to look outside of their military field. I never dreamed of working for America's largest railroad network. Yes, I had a mechanical background, but I believe it was leadership skills from the Marines that landed me this position. Veterans possess the attitude and drive to succeed in any environment; we just need the opportunity to prove it.”
