I'm just trying to understand better what's needed to actually be an NCO as far as training goes. A part of the requirements being some online training you can do that I was told is in Iperms but I can't seem to find it. What's the online training required, where is it and can I get it done on my free time?

This is an excellent question for your NCOIC. Ask them to show you your career management map.

Step one is being technically and tactically proficient. I understand you want to get the ball rolling, and yes, you should always be looking ahead. But right now, concentrate on learning your job, and take guidance from your first line. (S)he can give you FAR better guidance regarding proficiency, local customs, and unit policies. When looking at everything from PVT to SSG, it is all locally (unit) driven, so you need to be talking to local leaders to get the TRUE story.

It is admirable that you want to know, it is best that you focus on learning your job, improving you basic Soldiering skills and get one grade at a time. Thank you for your service.
