FOR SKILLPORT USE AUTOPLAY: 1. Launch course 2. general settings, click auto play THEN press play. You can do this while you're at home. Let the course run, chill, watch tv or watev then take the test at the end. Try to avoid the ones with test altogether. As far as I know right now...only the courses that are 30 min or more will count. I don't really do those I just stick with an hour or above until I can check for sure on my ERB to see if the 30 min ones have been adding up. I'll know by Monday :) Biggest advice is to not wait until you are promotable. It's super time consuming but doable. Knock this out now, yes even as a private.

did it work??

[@beckytarango8341]

What are the best courses to do? I already did six sigma

[@JonReremy]

and you can do one module per browser to do like 10 at a time

[@ajaykaranveer2069]

Ong it’s so annoying I wish i would have done it early. I feel like this was some higher up’s idea to occupy my free time that I usually spend at gym or you know… having a social life 😑. If they really wanted smart soldiers they would have implemented this in person courses but screw my free time right? imma have to look up every answer now because I really don’t care about online training 🤢

[@juanblancas5765]

I know this channel is going to grow into a really big channel and I’m happy to be here from the beginning 💪🏼

[@HeresTheDrill]

Thanks for the support 💪🏼

[@juanblancas5765]

Here’s The Drill thanks for the knowledge, I wished the army had more leaders like you DS

[@virgilcol]

F’n A. I’ve been looking for this and no one could tell me where to do it. Then I find a good ole KZbin video

[@EngineerfifeninerO]

Update: 450 hrs/ 90 points across the board. Someone wrote a guide for this.

[@christopherpoole3066]

Thanks for the Tips ✊🏽

[@Dan-pt2tn]

For JKO does it have to only be courses worth DL points? Or can it be anything at all?

[@dawan301]

Thanks DS French 👍👍👍

[@jensenguillory5048]

I have something I need cleared up, Drill Sergeant. I heard that on JKO if you don’t filter the courses to ATTRS DL Points, they will not count as promotion points/correspondent hours. Is this true?

[@HeresTheDrill]

I read that before somewhere, I’ll have to deep dive and see if it’s legit. But I remember hearing that before.

[@WatchMyShoez]

If they aren't DL you get no hours for it bro. I called jko and confirmed

[@Vinegarissweet]

That is correct. Must say DL.

[@Adriansofresh]

This is true

[@douglassosa8798]

Are some of the websites only accessible through government computer?

[@Travel.tanae9]

I maxed out in my hours already 😭😭

[@marissamack5428]

Dang!! Good job!! How though? Lol I need to make time

[@menglee6]

@Mya T what's the max hour?

[@leeluis2606]

Thanks already subscribed Ready to get smarter

[@herronanderson9249]

Big sergeant, what courses can I take for JST credits for college credits?

[@superpower7941]

Is worth it if you are PFC

[@rociorodriguez5468]

It says I need a government computer in order to log in

[@delinco750]

I’m a PV2 right now thinking on doing them you think it’s to early to do or the promotion points will still legit when I get to E5…. Or should wait until I’m E4 to start

[@gbdantv]

Do them now man,or youll be like me scrambling for points as a E4(P)

[@contenderzbasketball636]

are they international courses

[@FISHxST1X]

Hey Sarnt, for JKO do all the courses count towards points or only the ones that have ATRRS DL Points annotated on the side?

[@HeresTheDrill]

ATRRS on side

[@TheINTERNETfreaks1]

For the faster courses, did you ever get the issue where they flag you as suspicious

[@HeresTheDrill]

I didn’t but I did lot awhile ago not the new ones.

[@civic_doodie8955]

Yes it’s a thing. Army cleaned up the system so you have to watch/view a certain % of the full course to get credit. If it says 20 hours, I’d say you have to spend at least 5 hours for the system not to flag you.

[@xdjrockstar306x]

How do you see how long a skillport class would be?

[@LegendairyAce]

So what’s the difference in the JKO courses that say ATARRS DL POINTS and the ones that don’t say it

[@HeresTheDrill]

No difference, just different sites to do courses.

[@patrickmuston]

Do they have similar courses for officers? I am looking to commission as Chaplain next summer 2022. Thanks for the content hoping to go Airborne.🇺🇸💪🏼

[@Adriansofresh]

U don’t need this if your gonna commission

[@austinhine6157]

DS, I am currently working on getting hours for points, and JKO, courses labeled “DL Points” are the only ones that will count. As mentioned in the first comment. Also , I heard skillport is no longer working for hours credited towards promotion points?? Not to sure on that one, can you verify that it still does? Thanks

[@Vinegarissweet]

I'm currently doing skill port now and it has been updating my points on my ERB. I read that JKO or ALMS is no longer counting for us though. JKO was much better bc you can pick courses with more hours. Skillport it's 1-2.5 hrs but you can set in on auto play and go about your business which is awesome.

[@adamboi17]

@@Vinegarissweet does it matter which topic you choose to do the classes in?

[@ericlang2848]

so the language courses go towards correspondence hours ????

[@HeresTheDrill]

Which platform is it on? Alms , skillport?

[@TheKing-gl3yi]

@@HeresTheDrill jko

[@joshuahenderson9377]

Yes they do

[@sheisapuzzle]

Once the training completed at e-learning, do i have to send a copy of my certificate to my S1 to iperm?

[@HeresTheDrill]

Nope happens automatically

[@sheisapuzzle]

@@HeresTheDrill thank u for your knowledgeable information

[@Clutch19k]

I’m an E3 and Im wanting to know do you have to be rank E4 and above to be eligible to take these courses?

[@HeresTheDrill]

No rank will not dictate your access to any of these classes.

[@Clutch19k]

@@HeresTheDrill thank you

[@WinkTVAmiri]

Wassup DS Im currently at Bragg if you ever here or in the area would love to bring to you on channel to ask you questions for future soldiers on my platform and future Drills

[@HeresTheDrill]

Would love to man. We’ll link up in the future.

[@ThatBoyyFrank]

Any Recommended Alms courses? anybody?

[@marianaalvarez5365]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3iog56GetmpfaM This NCO sorted through which are worth points on ALMS it’s linked in her description box

[@K1LOZzZ]

Are all classes on skillport worth correspondent hours ?

[@HeresTheDrill]

Can’t confirm all but majority

[@marianaalvarez5365]

All classes over 30 minutes are, as long as they have a test at the end they will be worth points

[@israelmorales5089]

Are any of these certs good for civilian jobs?

[@HeresTheDrill]

Unless you can use them to get certified I’d say no. But I’m not totally sure.

[@qiannivan5287]

BING??? Drill sarnt? Bing!!

[@jr_m2916]

Anybody recomendation courses for ALMS ?

[@HeresTheDrill]

When I get to work on Monday I can find some I did for you.

[@jr_m2916]

[@WatchMyShoez]

[@jamesonharris4944]

Are the courses the exact same among the three different platforms? I am currently using JKO because I wasn’t aware of other platforms

[@HeresTheDrill]

No different courses on each one.

[@slickceretto9760]

Skillsoft sign up only works through ATRRS on a government computer.
