    How would expanding certificate programs change which types of training veterans can access compared to current degree-based education benefits?

  2. 02

    What mechanisms in the bill ensure regular instructor-student interaction, and how would that standard be monitored across different program providers?

  3. 03

    Since the bill doesn't allocate new funding, would covering additional certificate programs potentially reduce benefits available per veteran or per program?
