SKILLBRIDGE INTERNSHIP PROGRAM

The Dassault Falcon Jet Internship Program is an approved SkillBridge Program under the Department of Defense Instruction 1322.29. This program provides transitioning service members the opportunity to gain valuable civilian work experience during their final six months of military service, for up to 180 days. The program is open to all ranks and experience levels. SkillBridge participants are not eligible for compensation from Dassault Falcon Jet, as they continue to receive military compensation and benefits as active-duty service members.
