Denied
The Board denied the veteran's appeal for additional VR&E benefits to pursue a master's degree in public administration, stating that the veteran does not need further education to secure suitable employment.
The deciding factor: The Veteran was found by the VRC to have developed the knowledge, skills, and abilities to overcome his employment handicap and to obtain and maintain suitable employment, which the Veteran has already received by obtaining a bachelor's degree.
