Wyakin Academics Program takes the mystery out of transitioning from the military into a traditional college education and beyond. Delivered through the bedrock of our Six Tenets, we’ve engineered a program that meets each veteran’s unique needs.
With a strong focus on professional careers and success, we measure success as the Veteran defines it. Rooted in the philosophy that each person is much more than a veteran, we serve the “whole human” and focus on their robust, healthy futures. The Academics program supports veterans seeking 2, 4, and post-graduate degrees.

The Wyakin Trades Program provides a clear path for veterans pursuing careers in the skilled trades - fields where over six million jobs are available. By offering comprehensive support as veterans build their expertise, Wyakin helps close the workforce gap and ensures that veterans thrive in careers they’re passionate about.
Trades pathways offers an accelerated path to employment, with many certifications completed in as little as 12–18 months. Careers in the Trades pathways include: plumbing, welding, diesel techs, culinary arts, cosmetology and more.
The Wyakin Wheels Program, or Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) track, is designed for veterans pursuing careers in the transportation industry. We partner with state and local CDL training providers to support veterans as they earn their licenses, while offering one-on-one guidance from our staff throughout the process.
As Idaho and the nation continue to face a critical shortage of drivers, this pathway offers immediate and meaningful employment opportunities.


Wyakin Wheels Program or commercial driver’s license track is the quickest path to career placement. The training provides one-to-one instruction and in-house skills testing. The shortage of qualified drivers in the career field allows for a wide range of placements, whether the veteran is seeking local driving opportunities or long-distance over-the-road driving.
