The goal of the Department of Veterans Affairs� Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (VR&E) Program is to enable veterans to live independently, achieve the highest quality of life possible and, given advances in medical science and technology, to secure gainful employment. In 2004, an independent task force assessed the VR&E program and concluded that approximately one-third of veterans enrolled in the program did not persist and complete the program.

The 2007 Veterans Employability Research Survey (VERS) was conducted to determine the factors that impact veterans' employability resulting from participation in the VR&E Program. The study consists of a nationally representative survey of veterans who have applied to the VR&E Program, but who discontinued the program at various points as well as a comparison group of veterans who have completed the program.
