Veteran Services Capability Assessment Tool (56 slides)
What key capabilities are required to successfully deliver veteran services? To what extent does a veteran services agency have these capabilities?
In a capability assessment, the key capabilities required of the organization are identified. The capabilities are then assessed based on different states or plateaus that the organization may strive to achieve based on generally recognized common/best practices.
