https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-certifications-would-a-25u-obtain <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hello,<br /><br />I am looking at reserve units in my area and I really would like the 25B. My recruiter and I looked and could not find any open spots, not any in my state. I have my heart set on 25B, but there is an open 25U that&#39;s extremely close. I am studying coding in my free time and computers are what I want my career to be in. I was hoping to get a 25B position so I could obtain certifications. I wanted to know what certifications that the 25U would obtain. I have researched and can&#39;t find any. I don&#39;t want to spend my off time studying the certifications that a 25B would get in the classroom. I wanted to spend that time learning to code. Is there any advice that you all could give me?<br /><br />Background*<br />Brother was deployed to Afghanistan and my other brother is also in the military as well as my father. I have a strong desire to be a part of the military. I have a bachelors degree. I want to make sure that I don&#39;t make a hasty decision. <br /><br />Do you all think I should wait and hope that a spot will open close to me?<br /><br />All your input is greatly appreciated.

Nor will 25B. 35T grants you security + as well as 17C i believe along with others. But as far as 25U you will not receive any technical certification from training. However you can go to class and take the tests.

What you SHOULD get to help you out in getting positions is A+, NET+ and SEC+. SPC Private RallyPoint Member Fri, 31 Jan 2020 03:39:31 -0500 2020-01-31T03:39:31-05:00 2019-08-28T20:38:31-04:00
