I don’t want the same bs answer of “just look online to find it” I have all the forums are outdated. I just want a list of classes that will actually help and be relatively easy.

Maybe ask yourself why you want easy courses to take and why you want others to find them for you.

CPL (Join to see) - But it also shows you don't want to put in the work within the system you voluntarily joined.

CPL (Join to see) - Your capacity to lead troops is partly measured by how often you look for the easy way out.
And it's also partly measured by how well you know your troops' jobs, to include the online training they also have to go through, and partly measured by how well you can find the right answer on your own by searching through online regs, pams, and the HRC page.

SGM (Join to see) - My point exactly. How can you effectively lead your men when you're trying to skate through gaining either general knowledge or MOS specific knowledge? That shows poor character and poor leadership.

CPL (Join to see) - "skipping through a course that adds absolutely nothing to my career"
I will add this, courses in the Army, online or resident, are like anything else in your Army career or adult life in general: you get out of it what you put into it.

Whether it is institutional training and education, operational assignments, or self-development, a good leader knows himself and seeks self improvement, and sees the value of learning and still learns every day of their career, whether that is 3 years or 30.
That is the Army Leader Development Model, it's the only way we do business.
If you aren't interested in learning, leading troops might not be for you.

Not a bs answer, but did you try searching online here on RP? Because this question is asked and answered about once a week.
I can't saw how "easy" you will find these classes to be, but the average Soldier willing to put in the average amount of effort usually doesn't struggle with any of these:

Go to JKO
Click on Course Catalog
At the top of the list, at the right column there is s drop down menu, select ATRRS DL Points, then click search.
There are 259 total classes listed, each 1 to 10 hours long.

For what it's worth, if you google "online classes for promotion points army" the top result is usually the HRC page for Army Correspondence Course Program (ACCP) last updated May 2022, which also explains how to find these JKO courses (available from civ computer and CAC reader) and ATRRS self-service (on milnet only).

Sergeant Major,

Thank you for the response, as a new lower enlisted soldier I've been trying to find how exactly to take correspondence courses as well.

Thanks,
-PFC Roy
