Management & Program Analyst SkillBridge Training Plan
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Department of War (DoW) SkillBridge Program provides transitioning service member with an opportunity to gain valuable civilian work experience while preparing for their transition from military service. Through structured, hands-on internships, participants can apply their military experience and transferable skills while developing new competencies in a professional federal work environment. SkillBridge opportunities may be available across various IRS business units and career fields, including information technology, cybersecurity, criminal investigation, facilities management, communications, human resources, finance, data and analytics, administrative operations, and other mission-support functions. Participants receive a structured training plan designed to provide meaningful work experience, professional development, mentorship, and exposure to federal career opportunities. Participation in SkillBridge does not guarantee employment with the IRS; however, the experience can help service members strengthen their federal resume, expand their professional network, and better understand career opportunities within the federal government. The IRS Veterans Program Office works with participating business units, Veteran Employment Coordinators, hiring managers, and transitioning service members to help identify opportunities that align military experience, skills, education, and career interests with the needs of the IRS.
