Design a Winning Logo for Veteran Adjusting School!

Logo icon/badge designs must include the company name acronym: "VAS". And then the icon must be placed along side the full company name: "Veteran Adjusting School, LLC.".

The company tagline is: "...the special ops of adjuster training!"

"VAS" stands for "Vocational Adjusting School" and we sell a certified vocational education and hands-on training experience, unparalleled in our industry, for US military veterans who are returning to civilian life and needing to start a new career.

We specialize in the training, certifying, and successful industry placement of new self-employed "CAT" adjusters (independent agents hired by insurance companies, most often for weather-related catastrophic property damage resulting from hurricanes, tornadoes, hail, etc.).

Our target audience encompasses three primary customer groups:
• U.S. military veterans
• Seasoned construction industry professionals
• Entreprenures

I. Logo icon elements (what kind of basic building blocks should you think about when generating variety of initial icon concepts):
• Because we are training military people and because our tagline is "...special ops of adjuster training!": try outlines of badges, medals, or awards (eg with stars)
• Because our work is most often helping homeowners: try outlines of shapes of home or building
• Because we are teaching people skills to help people: try people elements (linked together like teacher & students, or in cooperation)
• arrows suggesting progress or success

II. Logo icon design style concepts (where to look to see the kind of icon designs which might inspire your designs):
• Military Design Stylings (eg US military uniform badges, dept logos, awards...) design styles;
• Construction/Building Industry (labels/seals/certifications) design styles;
• Emergency Help (labels/seals/certifications) design styles; (...think about rescue, fire dept, ambulance)
• Educational/Vocational Industry design styles

III. Logo Icon style descriptors (getting the "feeling" the logo must convey):
• Powerful
• Credible
• Near Governmental/Military (credibility/form)
• Serious
• Inspiring
