Can TA or any other form of army program cover credentials/designations?

Hi, In the USAR, I am looking to continue my education for my civilian career (Insurance industry). I wanted to know if anyone has experience having credentials, certifications, and or designations paid for? As well as the steps in doing so or even a couple of websites or POC to possibly find answers for my question. Thank you.

The only credentials the Air Force paid for were my EMT and EMT-Paramedic licenses.

I'm curious if you attempted to Google Tuition Assistance Reserves before you posted...just wondering.

So.... You're an officer now, Google is your best friend. Start there first then ask questions for clarification. In the very, very near future as a logistics officer you will need to learn regs, or you will be out of a lot of money.

Don't take my word for it ask a few of the LG and TC officer branches here.
