FY27 Credentialing Assistance Opens Monday, September 14

If you're planning an Army CA or Air Force COOL credential this fiscal year, this is the week to get your package ready — not the week to guess.

thinQtank Learning maps certification training to the credentials Soldiers, Airmen, and Guardians actually use in ArmyIgnitED and AFVEC — so the course you take lines up with the credential you're funded for.

Here's what makes this easy: every thinQtank class is priced at $1,500 — comfortably within your Army CA or Air Force COOL funding. That's the right training with nothing out of pocket.

What's on the table this fiscal year

• Army Credentialing Assistance — up to $2,000 per fiscal year toward one approved credential. Our $1,500 classes fit inside that cap.
• Air Force COOL — up to $4,500 lifetime for eligible Air and Space Force professionals — enough for multiple thinQtank courses.

Where we fit — and where we don't

We help you choose the pathway, match the course to the credential, and assemble the vendor details your request needs. What we don't do is approve funding — ArmyIgnitED, Army COOL, AFVEC, and AF COOL do that. Our job is to make sure that when you submit, the package is clean, the course maps to an approved credential, and nothing is left to chance.

Get your packet ready

The window opens Monday. The fastest path is to have your course and start-date language in hand before you sit down to submit.
