Simply defined in the military, “Green Zone” is referred to as a “safe place.” Institutions of higher learning have adopted what is called, “Green Zone Training” for faculty and staff. This training is geared towards creating awareness about the experiences and struggles faced by student veterans as they transition to academia, as well as provide sound practices and procedures to help the student veteran succeed. The Green Zone training should provide an in-depth understanding and knowledge-base of military culture, and the common experiences and struggles of service members, veterans and their families. All faculty and staff who complete the training receive a Green Zone decal that allows students to recognize their certification.
