Can veterans use the GI Bill for coaching certification?

Answered by Angel Reyes, MCHES®Last verified: November 5, 2026

Short answer

NBHWC reports that its board-certification exam fee can be reimbursed under the Post-9/11 GI Bill (VA Form 22-0803); the application fee is not covered. Confirm current rules with NBHWC and the VA.

Many former military medics and corpsmen have the clinical communication skills coaching relies on.
