ADF Transition & Civil Recognition Project
The ADF Transition & Civil Recognition (ADF TCR) Project was established in October 2017 to assist ADF members align their military skills with civilian qualifications. The ADF TCR Project can help veterans understand what civilian employers want and how to express service in a way that any employer can understand and value. The ADF TCR Project also aims to educate employers about the highly transferable military skills ADF members can offer to civilian roles and have created the ADF Transition Training & Skills Guides to help translate military skills into civilian language
