Technical Career Field Program - VA Careers

The best networking.
The first year of training in the TCF Program consists of acclimating yourself to the
program and working closely with your managers/preceptors to learn new skills in
your selected field.
But during your second year of training, your VA preceptor/Program Manager will
begin working with you to determine your location for permanent placement and
to find a position that best fits your skills, needs, and circumstances.
With more than 1,400 medical centers, clinics, and other facilities Nationwide,
VA easily matches interns with available job openings. It’s also possible that
you’ll need to relocate for a position in a facility with a high need for your new
skills. All interns are asked to sign a mobility statement and training/service
agreement before entering the TCF Program.
So, if placement is not available at your training site, and relocation is necessary
for final placement, VA pays for your moving expenses — if the relocation meets
permanent change of station requirements.
