Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

NEXTOP HELPS PLACE TALENTED ENLISTED SERVICE MEMBERS AND VETERANS INTO CIVILIAN CAREERS THROUGH HIGHLY INDIVIDUALIZED PREPARATION AND AN ARRAY OF PROGRAMMING.

Activities or mission (Part I)

NEXTOP IS ENGINEERED TO MEET THE UNPRECEDENTED EMPLOYMENT CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES FACING MILITARY MEMBERS AND VETERANS TODAY.

  • NEXTOP'S EMPLOYMENT PROGRAMMING FACILITATES A SEAMLESS TRANSITION FOR VETERANS FROM MILITARY SERVICE TO CIVILIAN CAREERS. THE NEXTOP EMPLOYMENT TEAM WORKS ONE-ON-ONE WITH SERVICE MEMBERS TO IDENTIFY CAREERS AND INDUSTRIES, TRANSLATE SKILLS, EXPLORE UPSKILLING OR RESKILLING OPPORTUNITIES, REFINE RESUMES, AND DEVELOP INTERVIEW SKILLS. THIS SUPPORT HELPS EACH CANDIDATE SECURE INTERVIEWS AND ULTIMATELY LAND A CAREER IN THE INDUSTRY/COMPANY/SPECIFIC ROLE THEY ARE SEEKING. OUR CANDIDATES COMPRISE THE MOST DIVERSE POPULATION WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE - THE MIDDLE ENLISTED RANKS - AND ARE UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO BRING THEIR SOFT SKILLS AND WORLD EXPERIENCES TO THE PRIVATE SECTOR, BUT OFTEN LACK THE NETWORK, UNDERSTANDING OF THE INDUSTRY AND CAREER OPTIONS, AND SPECIFIC CERTIFICATIONS TO ACCESS INTERVIEWS AND HIRING REPRESENTATIVES WITHOUT OUR HELP. NEXTOP BRIDGES THE GAP FOR COMPANIES INTERESTED IN VETERAN TALENT. STILL, THEY NEED TO LEARN HOW TO DIRECTLY ACCESS AND CONNECT WITH THE POPULATION, ESPECIALLY BEFORE OR AS THEY DEPART THE ACTIVE-DUTY COMPONENT.EVENTS: NEXTOP PLANS AND HOSTS VARIOUS SEMINARS, WORKSHOPS, AND OTHER PROGRAMMING EVENTS RELATED TO VETERAN WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, EMPLOYMENT, NETWORKING, AND CORPORATE PARTNER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT PROGRAMMING, TYPICALLY THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY. MENTORSHIP: MILITARY CANDIDATES CAN EASILY REGISTER VIA OUR WEBSITE AND ARE ASSESSED BY OUR STAFF DURING A THOROUGH INTAKE. THEY ARE ASSIGNED TO ONE OF OUR EMPLOYMENT COORDINATORS, WHO COACH AND MENTOR THEM THROUGHOUT THE EMPLOYMENT PREPARATION AND PLACEMENT PROCESSAND BEYOND. ADDITIONALLY, NEXTOP WORKS CLOSELY TO CONNECT OUR CANDIDATES AND THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS WITH OTHER MENTORSHIP PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES, ENSURING A SUCCESSFUL TRANSITION TO THE CIVILIAN COMMUNITY AND WORKFORCE FOR BOTH THEM AND THEIR FAMILIES. CORPORATE PARTNERS: NEXTOP'S CORPORATE PARTNERS ARE AMONG THE MOST WELL-RESPECTED INDUSTRY COMPANIES THAT TRULY VALUE MILITARY SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE. NEXTOP WORKS WITH OUR CORPORATE PARTNERS TO DEVELOP A MILITARY-FRIENDLY WORK CULTURE CENTERED ON ESTABLISHING A VETERAN AFFINITY GROUP AND STREAMLINING MILITARY RECRUITING PROCESSES. NEXTOP MEETS COMPANIES WHERE THEY ARE TO SUPPORT THEIR VETERAN EMPLOYMENT GOALS, WHETHER CONSULTING ON ESTABLISHING VETERAN HIRING INITIATIVES, EVALUATING PAST PROGRESS AND ESTABLISHING NEXT STEPS, OR SPEAKING TO KEY STAKEHOLDER GROUPS WITHIN COMPANIES TO HIGHLIGHT THE VETERAN EMPLOYEE VALUE PROPOSITION AND DISPEL ANY MYTHS. NEXTOP EXPERIENCED A VERY SUCCESSFUL 2024, PLACING 773 CANDIDATES AT AN ALL-TIME HIGH AVERAGE SALARY OF $67,400.

    Expenses $2,138,980 · Grants $75,000 · Revenue $372,531

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
