Battalion commander options

> When
an IET Soldier is given all remedial training opportunities, and ultimately fails the first attempt at a MOSproducing school or course, the training unit battalion commander has two working days to determine the disposition
of the Soldier.
>
>
a. The battalion commander, based upon input received from cadre familiar with the Soldier's reason for failure, can
consider the Soldier for a new start in another company or battalion.
>
>
b. If qualified, consider the Soldier for retraining in another available MOS reclassification/ renegotiation, or
recommend the Soldier for separation.
>
>
c. When RC Soldiers are not granted a second training opportunity, coordination with the RC liaison NCO is
required to present additional evidence on behalf of the Soldier to the battalion commander. The battalion commander
will consider the liaison's input before making a final decision.

Procedures
>
>
a. IET Soldiers offered a second training opportunity are sent to the personnel service center with all documents
relative to their reclassification. The personnel service center has access to the "TS" display on ATRRS, which is used
to reclassify IET individuals.
>
>
(1) The ATRRS operator will bring up the IET Soldier's MOS selection "TS" display in ATRRS. The "TS"
display is reviewed and updated to include the reason code for reclassification. This establishes the IET Soldier's
current qualifications and status in ATRRS. A list is printed providing MOS the IET Soldier is qualified to select.
>
>
(2) Using the "RETAVAL" report available in the reports generator section of ATRRS, the ATRRS operator
can enter the social security number for up to 10 different individuals. ATRRS will print out a listing of the training
available for each individual, based on their qualifications and the available classes scheduled in ATRRS over the next
four weeks. The IET Soldier may use this listing to select a new MOS. If the IET Soldier is qualified, and a training
seat is available, the MOS is reserved. When the reservation is made, a message is provided to the personnel service
center, which is their authority to publish orders.
>
>
b. The personnel service center will reclassify the IET Soldier within 48 hours. To save transportation costs and
reduce stress on the Soldier, make reasonable attempts to match the Soldier to a MOS taught at the assigned location.
>
>
c. In the case of a RC Soldier, the RC liaison NCO will seek a MOS based on a unit vacancy. If an ARNG
accession module does not contain predetermined second and third choices based on unit needs, the ARNG unit and
ARNG liaison NCO at the training location will make resolution. Similar coordination is performed for USAR
personnel.
