BDCo. SkillBridge Program

Benevolent Design Co. proudly participates in the Department of Defense SkillBridge Program, offering military service members the opportunity to apprentice under an approved business during their transition to civilian life. This program helps participants explore new career paths, develop valuable hands-on skills, and build confidence as they prepare for life beyond military service. We’re honored to play a role in that journey.

Through our SkillBridge partnership, participants receive training in all facets of fine woodworking and small business operations. Apprentices gain experience in milling, lumber processing, and handcrafted furniture design, using our mobile mill under the guidance of our master sawyer. They learn setup and maintenance of milling equipment, slab flattening, and dimensioning — transforming raw lumber into custom, heirloom-quality pieces while gaining insight into the daily workings of a small business.
