Cerro Coso to host virtual Veterans Benefit Webinar

The College is hosting a veterans Benefit Webinar via Zoom on Thursday, Aug. 6 from 6 to 7 p.m., highlighting information on how to enroll as a student and receive military educational benefits at Cerro Coso Community College.

Discussion topics will provide a brief overview of education benefits; processes for the G.I. Bill and CalVet Fee Waiver; college resources and the new MyVRC App.

Those attending are encourage to preregister in advance of the workshop at http://www.cerrocoso.edu/event/virtual-veterans-benefits-webinar. After, registering participants will receive a confirmation email with the Zoom link to attend.

The new MyVRC App is designed specifically for Cerro Coso’s military and veteran students to help them access information and staff contacts; provide links to campus and community resources, utilize the built-in chat feature; access wellness and crisis resources and provide success tools and learning resources. The app allows them to build a network of buddies and introduce themselves to other veterans on campus. The MyVRC can be downloaded for free from the Apple App Store or Google Play using keyword: myvrc.
