Successfully Transitioning from Active to Retired (STAR)
Mil/Gov Career Transition Seminar
March 5, 2008, 2:30pm-5:00pm
(at Naval IT Day)

Pre-Registration is Necessary, as there will be a reception!

The STAR Program is AFCEA NOVA's seminar series for Government/Military employees that are in the process of career transition. This afternoon event coincides with Naval IT Day, but is for our uniformed and government members from any service or agency who are retiring or leaving government service for the civilian sector in the next 12 months. It is intended to build upon the information provided by the Government transition assistance programs. The event will offer attendees the opportunity to gain insights and lessons learned from others who have successfully made the transition. It also offers networking opportunities with program managers, hiring managers, and staffing professionals.
