Gateway designated as “Military Friendly School” by national group fifth straight year

For the fifth straight year, Victory Media, the premier publisher of magazines for military personnel transitioning into civilian life, has awarded Gateway Technical College the designation of Military Friendly School.

The 2016 Military Friendly Schools ratings recognize colleges and companies with leading programs for veterans, members of the Armed Forces leaving military service and military spouses.

The survey weighting, methodology and list were independently certified by Ernst and Young.

“Those earning the 2016 Military Friendly designation demonstrate a strong connection between classroom learning and career development,” said Daniel Nichols, chief product officer of Victory Media and Navy Reserve veteran. “They’re moving the needle beyond ‘why recruit military’ to translating military competencies into training and positive employment after graduation.”

The feedback provides prospective military students with insight into the student-veteran experience based on peer reviews from current students. Each year, educational institutions evaluated in the survey are held to a higher standard than the previous year through improved survey methodology.
