I completed SSD 1 and 3. I learned a lot from SSD 3 in regards to how certain things are supposed to be handled within the military.

When they first announced that 7,000 SSG's werent being considered for promotion because they hadn't bothered to do their SSD's, I was elated, but I can't help but wonder, how many were in MY MOS? That would be very useful/interesting info...

I am happy because people who cannot meet the minimum standard will not be promoted. As should you be.

If they have not finished the bare minimum requirements I don't think very many of them would have been competitive anyway. Just for curiosity's sake I wanted to see those who had not completed SSD 3 and who did not verify their board file. They are probably pretty close to each other.

Agreed.. It would be interesting if HRC could create some form of online database where you can compare yourself to your peer group, but given the state of AKO, I suspect that's a tall order..

SSG - of that 7000 who dropped off the list because they hadn't completed SSD, how many would you say REALLY wanted to be promoted? Especially in this day and age, if you don't want to be promoted, just do nothihg. The days of getting rank just handed to you are gone.

I am currently in ALC and did SSD 3 to get automatically enrolled in this course. That's also the only SSD I did so far.

SSG Turkezer, thanks. I also stated that in my previous comment,"SSD 4 is reserved for SLC graduates" etc....... But thanks for the heads up

Once she is done, all she has to do is call her branch. they will give her the school branch number and it took me about 2 seconds to get an ALC slot.

Prior to the BS of having to do the online courses; I had completed all NCOS courses. That being brick and mortar. Then one day years after having graduated ANCOC I was told I had to do some SSD online BS course. So in saying the online courses are just dotting the I's and crossing the T's. Google is your friend. Other than that it is a total waste of time and 100% BS. But alas it is a way to cull the herd;-)

I'm looking at SSD3 on ALMS, but I have no idea how to actually launch the course work. Any thoughts?

I have graduated SSD 3 &4, as well as PLDC, BNCOC AND ANCOC. SSD 1 &2 not available for me. Been in too long. I'm also waiting on my awesome associated degree that I should have got when I completed SSD 4. Either way, I'll do it thr old fashion way. Cheers.

I graduated from the old PLDC in 2002 then ALC in 2010 then DL ALC CC then SSD3 then SLC. I have helped 5 battles in completing SSD4 whom are mostly Master Sergeants now. However after the restructure of the SSD4 I am having severe difficulties in completing it myself. After research I see the new MLC course is kicking off and will be required for 1st sergeants so officially every NCOES school will have an SSD associated with it. So as veteran senior NCO's we will either have to stumble through the new requirements or be passed passed up by the newer generation of up coming NCO's. Like it or not this is the course that the Army as we know it has turned. I have personally seen the new requirements end good NCO's careers. I for one will not allow computer based course be the deciding factor in my career. I have met my goal of being an E-7 SFC and now that I have it I have 19 years of service in with two years of Time in Grade. I am getting greedy I am going for the long haul and staying until I get forced out and I am hopefully going to obtain my star before retirement. I have 2 deployments 7.5 years active duty 3 years on the gun line in the guard, 6.5 years as a 13B 10, 30 40 level instructor in the guard, going on 2 years as an assistant State level Range control NCOIC. I Also took a two year break to get a college associate degree and have a 6 digit a year civilian income and I am a single father an 11 year old boy. I am proud of what I have accomplished and with a little hard work we as NCO's can all accomplish the same. Ai-ee-yah
