Is there NCOES school you attend once you're assigned as the EO rep?

I was told by my section OIC that he wants to assign me as the EO NCOIC, is there a training school you have to attend? If so where is this school located?

The EO course...usually each Division or installation has its own course.

I was the EO NCO of HHC 3rd Brigade 4th ID from 93 to 94. Then I was DA selected for Recruiting. My schooling was taught by the Division EO NCO.

For company rep your EOL school will be local. Probably on your installation. If you get assigned as your battalion EOA, usually a E7 position, is at a facility in Florida I believe.

You need to be appointed on orders. SSG Steven P. is correct.

Ok first and foremost the EO program is a commanders program therefore the commander must appoint you as the EOL. Nothing against your OIC but he can only recommend to your commander to be and unit EOL and placed on orders by the commander. Next you will need to speak with your BDE EOA (with orders in hand) who will lay out the guidelines of your installation along with school dates and the whole nine (For example I had to do an interview, local records check and essay when I went to EOL as apart of the units SOP). But to get a headstart look into AR 600-20 and you will find the basis of the program.

Best person to ask is your training NCO. They can pull all of that information from ATRRS.

Ditto everyone else, once you have your orders memo then you'll be assigned. You can look up classes on the atrrs course catalog for more info, it's a 60 hour course. No pre-requisite listed DL-wise.

It's not an NCOES school. It's an EO course you first have to have appointment orders be vetted by your BDE EOA and have your schools person slot you for a class. At least that's how it's done here. I hope that helps.

That is just a position as an EOL. So you will be in charge of the rest of the EOLS in your section or company or Bn. Once you become a SSG (p) or SFC you can apply to become an EOA which is not the leader but the advisor. At that level as an advisor that is a separate identifier. Your job for 2 years will be as an advisor to a brigade, regiment commander or above. From there you will be in charge of managing the equal opportunity program , monthly observances, and address any isses when a formal complain need to be processed, resolved and followed up with the individual that made the complain and their COC. The school is in Florida and is 3 months long.

There is schooling/classes one must attend to become unit "EO" certified. It is not an NCOES school. Most MACOMs have an installation level course one has to attend.
