The new GI Bill is a tremendous benefit for veterans, and it will even pay the exam/license fee for state professional licenses. If you're a qualified veteran with GI Bill benefits, not having a state professional license shouldn't be an excuse. If you're not qualified in a trade and want to get the training, the GI Bill will pay for the classes and provide a housing allowance; the eligible veteran just needs to supply the initiative.
