Forge Institute is thrilled to announce our prestigious achievement as the recipient of the 2023 HIRE Vets Platinum Award from the US Department of Labor. This recognition highlights our commitment to fostering meaningful career paths for veterans and transitioning service members. Learn more about the HIRE Vets Medallion Program at hirevets.gov

Approximately 200,000 service members each year will separate from the military and re-enter the civilian workforce or pursue higher education. One of the ways an organization can support military veterans is by providing career development and support during their transition process. Forge Institute is committed to providing opportunities that help veterans advance in the workforce and develop professionally along the way. We do this through our Forge Fellowship program.

DON’T WORRY, YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A CYBER “GURU”.

We are providing fellowship (internship) opportunities to those interested in exploring a career in cybersecurity, information technology, leadership and related areas. This is a Monday thru Friday, 8 to 5 program with varying lengths to accommodate you, the Veteran. Some of the day-to-day responsibilities include research & development, partner engagement, outreach, collaboration, and security implementation. The best part is that there may be some long-term employment opportunities available with Forge Institute and/or our employer partners.

Most opportunities are at our headquarters in Little Rock, Arkansas. Some remote opportunities may be available.
