Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claim for additional VR&E benefits to pursue a Ph.D., finding that his existing education was sufficient for suitable employment.
The deciding factor: The VRC concluded that the Veteran had the ability to obtain and maintain suitable employment after receiving the services outlined in his IWRP, and there was no evidence that he was unable to find such employment with his current training.
