SUMMARY:Where Military Experience Meets Industry Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:Where Military Experience Meets Industry Opportunity\nLive and on-demand\nThursday\, May 28\, 2026\, 2:00pm ET – Register Now\nFoodservice professionals transitioning out of the United States Armed Forces bring a unique perspective to our industry. Their training and skillset allow them to understand complex situations and provide effective solutions in high-pressure circumstances. These are qualities that industry employers seek out in identifying top-tier talent\, but risk losing out on by not connecting these skills to a purpose driven opportunity.\nIn this session\, you’ll learn more about what the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation is doing to help our armed service members find their next mission within our industry. We’ll discuss how the Military program is equipping service members with the skills they need to make an impact on their current day-to-day responsibilities and connecting them with potential employers to consider as they transition into civilian careers. You’ll walk away with insights on how to attract and retain veteran talent by providing them with opportunities to maximize their own potential in our industry.\n			\n				REGISTER NOW\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Speakers\nDerek Small\, Military Program Director\, National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation\nJames Colbert\, Executive Director\, Heroes Linked\nBaron McDaniel\, National Sales Manager\, U.S. Military\, Hormel Foods Corporation
