What is SQI code "E" in my MOS code?

2023-04-23T11:22:21-04:00

I got new orders uploaded into iPERMS that state my MOS code is 12B3EO. I tried looking it up, but cannot find anything saying what SQI that is. I've never had an SQI, although I am supposed to go to recruiting school SQI code "4" within the next few months. I haven't heard back from career manager. Any help is appreciated.

UPDATE: According to my career manager, this is how IPPS-A reads the MOS code for my position. "E" for Enlisted and "O" for no special qualifications.

COL Randall C. Maybe you can answer this SSG. I was looking through AR-614-200 and didn’t see that SQI.

Couldn't find "E0", but "E" is listed as 'Military Mountaineer'* given by the Infantry School.

SQI on IPPSA is two characters, as part of an MOS code, it is only one. The first is E/O for enlisted or officer, the second would be the skill identifier, EE (enlisted mountaineer), EX (Drill Sergeant), EO (Enlisted no special qualifications).
Another example:
11C3X (Mortarman, Staff Sergeant, Drill Sergeant)
31B2O (Military Police, Sergeant, No special qualifications)
