As a reserve officer is the QM BOLC any part remote or is it all in-person and 16 weeks? I'm specifically looking at 90A AOC. I'm currently part of the AMEDD over strength issue.
Is it the same as AD or different/shorter for TPU?

BOLC is active duty for 15 weeks and 3 days. There may be a DL portion prior to arrival (I had to do 2 classes in blackboard). The AOC for QM is 92A. Officers don't get 90A until they complete LG CCC and request a branch reassignment.
Are you sure you have to attend BOLC? Have you asked about just attending the LG CCC?

Thank you for the response Ma'am. I recent DC into AMEDD as a 70D but I haven't attended AMEDD BOLC yet, I was required to go to DCC this past year and will go to AMEDD BOLC FY22 (but not until July).

Either way, due to my constructive credit, I am required to go to board this year so I think even a branch transfer will result in a 1st time non-select if I am required to go to the new branch BOLC course.

The Basic Officer Leadership Course, or in my day, Officer Basic Course, is Active Duty only for all Branches and all Officers, regardless of being Active, Reserve or National Guard.
If you are doing a branch transfer, you usually will not go back to the Basic course. I branch transferred to the Engineers when I went to the Kentucky National Guard as an Infantry Officer. They required that I complete the Reserve Engineer Officer Advanced Course. That course is a two week active duty section, a distance learning section, then a final two weeks and graduation. Talk to your career counselor.

I believe, if you are already Branch Qualified in ANY OTHER BRANCH all you need is CCC for LG.

So, in that case, as a QM 92A BOLC officer myself that just finished CCC LG last FY I literally did the whole thing virtual from start to finish and never left the house.

Under normal conditions, which is how things look to be going LG CCC is comprised of
1) Virtual Common Core CCC curriculum
2) Phase 1 in person for 2 weeks at Ft Lee
3) Phase 2 in person for 2 weeks at Ft Lee

Phase 1 and phase 2 have to be done in order, but they can be done in different fiscal years.

The Virtual CCC portion needs to be finished before you can register for Phase 1 and 2.
