What is the Lockheed SkillBridge program?

The Lockheed SkillBridge program is an initiative that allows active-duty U.S. military service members to gain civilian work experience through internships and training during their last 180 days of service. It is part of the Department of Defense SkillBridge program and provides opportunities within Lockheed Martin in a variety of fields such as engineering, project management, and manufacturing. Participants receive hands-on training and exposure to civilian work environments, helping them transition smoothly into post-military careers. The program is designed to bridge the gap between military and civilian employment, and there is no cost to the service member or their military branch.
