I've pretty much finished my enlistment and I'm just waiting for my documents to go to medical and then go to MEPS and I am curious about what they cover at AIT. On the goarmy.com website it says this is how training goes:
Orientation - Phase 1 - 2 Weeks
Special Operations Language Training - Phase 2 - 25 Weeks
Specialist/Officer Course - Phase 3 - 6 Weeks
Regional Analysis - Phase 4 - 4 Weeks
Interagency Training - Phase 5 - 4 Weeks
Graduation - 1 Week
I'm aware that I don't have to go through the language training but I'm not sure about anything else.

SPC Private RallyPoint Member, I’m hopeful that LTC Eric Udouj may provide an answer to your question.

You have the Active duty pipeline on this question, not the Reservist one. Reserve does not do SOLT, Regionals, or Interagency. You will be in an AIT, not a Qualification Course.
You will go over topics like targeting, messaging, behavior analysis, sociology/psychology, and population analysis, among others.

You wont get language - you are right. Its a 10 week course, and I do not know the aspects of its breakdown. If you want the full breakdown of it - stop at your new unit - and talk to the AGR Company Training NCO and they will be able to tell you what you are wanting to know as per the current FY20 courses now that they are at FT Jackson. One of the advantages of being in the USAR is you already have a unit your assigned to.... and your recruiter knows the unit. Hope that helps.
