For veterans and the organizations that serve them
AI Skills for Veterans in Transition
A free, hands-on workshop for Cincinnati-area veterans. Taught by a combat veteran. Not therapy, practical skills.
What veterans walk out with
- Turn a wall-of-text VA letter into plain English you can act on.
- Translate military experience into a civilian resume, cover letter, and interview answers that hiring managers understand.
- Cut the daily administrative load: drafting emails, organizing tasks, structuring a job search.
- Know what never goes into an AI tool, and how to catch AI when it is confidently wrong.
All you need is your phone
The whole workshop runs on your own smartphone with free AI tools, so everything you learn goes home with you. No laptop, no software to buy, no account you lose access to when the class ends.
No question is too basic
If something the AI says goes over your head, you tell it so, and it explains again in plainer words, as many times as you need. It never sighs, never makes you feel behind, never assumes you should already know. For a lot of us coming out of the service, that patience is the whole difference. It is a teacher with all the time in the world for you.
Safety is built in, not bolted on
- Skills training, not treatment. Every session opens with that distinction and the Veterans Crisis Line (988, press 1).
- The instructor refers, never counsels. No clinical advice. AI companion apps and "AI therapy" apps are on the do-not-use list.
- Privacy first. Attendees are taught never to enter Social Security numbers, dates of birth, medical information, or financial information into any AI tool.
- A written consent script is read aloud and printed at every session. Participation is voluntary, nothing is recorded, and no personal disclosures are asked for.
Who teaches it
Ron Hampton. U.S. Army, fourteen years as a Cavalry Scout, multiple combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, now pursuing a second bachelor's in AI Development. He uses the exact tools he teaches to run his business and manage post-service life. A fellow veteran teaching what works for him, not a corporate trainer reading slides.
For VA programs, VSOs, and veteran-serving organizations
Host a session. Pilot workshops with a partner organization are free: Ron brings all instruction, materials, and printed handouts at no cost to your organization or to attendees. After the pilot, ongoing sessions can be sponsored by veteran-serving organizations, and a no-cost path for individual veterans stays open permanently.
VetTech Homefront's affiliated nonprofit, Veterans Tech Outreach, is an incorporated Ohio nonprofit corporation (501(c)(3) status planned).
