Once you are out of the Active duty books, you can start to train in the unit. Best luck to you.

First you’ll need to be off active duty; there is no guarantee you’ll be accepted or even competitive for a slot, so have a strong backup plan SFC Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 23 Sep 2020 02:14:38 -0400 2020-09-23T02:14:38-04:00 Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made Sep 23 at 2020 9:32 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-process-on-going-from-ac-to-agr-as-an-11b-staff-sergeant-with-12-years?n=6337281&urlhash=6337281 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>AGR is fairly competitive as an E6, and it can be a bit of nepotistic system. You should not base your decisions solely on getting an AGR job, because it may not happen for several years in the Guard/Reserves, if ever.

You&#39;ll have a higher chance of getting selected.

AGR is an application process and it is very competitive. There are limited positions/ranks/MOS. You must be a member of the reserve or guard to be eligible for AGR positions.

Reserve, National Guard State, or National Guard Federal? <br />I did that as a Major. One day I’m active duty, the next I’m AGR. 15 yrs, no break in service. A seven day old Major. Good luck, it takes a lot of planning and sponsorship to where you want to get. COL Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 23 Sep 2020 20:43:07 -0400 2020-09-23T20:43:07-04:00 2020-09-23T01:04:47-04:00
