Programs to ask about

  • 1
    Service credentialing programs (COOL)

    Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard credentialing programs can help active-duty, Guard and Reserve members pay for approved civilian credentials, including the FAA remote pilot certificate. Coverage and approved vendors vary by service. Start with your service's COOL site and your education office.

    VA licensing and certification test reimbursement

    Eligible veterans can use GI Bill benefits to be reimbursed for approved licensing and certification test fees. Search the VA's WEAMS licensing and certification listings to confirm the FAA test is covered for you. Reimbursement covers the test fee, not study materials. VA also approves some test-preparation courses; Aneroid Press is not on that list yet. VA fact sheet (opens in a new tab), DoD COOL (opens in a new tab)
