Other than the standard MOS, NCOES and ASI/SQI training for professional development are there any additional courses that you would recommend for a Soldiers professional development. For example, the <span style='font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;'><font color="#000000">Senior Enlisted Joint Professional Military

I always recommend acquisitions courses/certification. It's free while you're active duty and it translates well to civilian jobs.

Very important. The Defense Acquisition University posts all of it Low Fill Classes - http://www.dau.mil/training/trainingDocs/Low_Fill_Classes.pdf - since these classes are not full you can sign up for them and attend. It is up to you to pay for travel and expenses but it is a good way to finish your certifications

Battle Staff NCO Course is an excellent professional development course, if you stay in long enough, you may very well find yourself as a member of a BN or BDE staff and this course will set you up to be successful in understanding and executing as a member of the staff.

I second that. Huge difference between leading troops and being on staff. I saw a lot of good coming from the NCOs I've known that took the course.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that Battle Staff is a key course for Senior NCOs.

I'm interested in ones you can complete online and go to your ERB as well to be honest, like the JPME (which I already completed). Although that one no longer goes on the ERB like it used to.
