Where can I find correspondence courses that I can enroll into for points that are easy to take?

I don’t want the same bs answer of “just look online to find it” I have all the forums are outdated.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.

Easy is relative.

To test the system myself I enrolled in all the business related courses to see if I could actually get points registered in my service history. However, by many accounts they were not easy for someone that doesn't have a business degree.

That all said, I suppose I could just GIVE you the LINK I easily found, but here is the search phrase I used to find it.

"army electronic based distance learning 2022"

*************
The army changed the system for folks like me. I was using the list to knock out as many retirement points as possible.

Measuring and Modeling Relationships between Variables in Six Sigma - bring it on
Horizon Scanning: Identifying Future Opportunities - sounds great
Becoming a Successful Collaborator - that's good too
Formatting E-mail in Outlook 2016 - sure thing

No more........ One can still do all these classes, but getting reserve points for it is off the table. So motivation now is for personal development or MOS specific career orientated development.

CPL Private RallyPoint Member, I think you question is a moot one. The Army stopped giving reserve component soldiers retirement points for correspondence courses back in 2016.

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).

I don't know about "easy" courses but one of the most productive with regard to promotion points is the Army pre-commission correspondence course -- it actually consists of dozens of courses, the completion of each one gives you points, and at the end you get a diploma. Go the your post education office and speak to a counselor.
