How SkillBridge Works

The DoW SkillBridge program allows eligible service members to gain civilian work experience during their final 180 days of active duty service while continuing to receive military compensation and benefits.

You may be eligible if you:

  • Have 180 days or fewer remaining on active duty
  • Receive approval from your unit commander
  • Meet your service branch’s SkillBridge requirements
  • Complete the experience before separation

We recommend starting the process early to allow time for planning and approval.
