Understanding Service-Connected VA and DoD Benefits

Audio/Video Training Course

If you are interested in expanding your practice to include service-connected claims or just want to better understand these types of VA benefits so that your clients apply for and receive everything they are entitled to receive, you might want to consider purchasing this comprehensive training program. It covers not only a basic explanation of service connection but associated advanced issues as well.

This program is over six hours long and can be played and paused at your convenience. It is in pdf format with typed audio, so that you can not only hear the presentation but read the audio as well. All references such as those to the C.F.R., U.S.C., M21 VA policy manuals, and websites of interest are linked, making them easy to access.
