Can someone claim military education for the Paramedic Program at Fort Bragg? How might the ASI affect your role or assignments?

I graduated the paramedic program at Fort Bragg a few years ago. The one that partners with FTCC to get medics their national registry. I was wondering if anybody else that has graduated has been able to claim any sort of military ed for it? I know the courses at JBSA have military ed codes.
I'm also curious about that new ASI. I'm currently a 68C, but I saw that Ws are getting an ASI for paramedic now. Anybody know how that might affect your role or assignments?
Thanks

The ASI for Paramedic is for 68W's, specifically for Flight Medics. You can have the ASI but you're not going to have a different assignment for it on AD as an LPN because nurses are not assigned as Paramedics.
The military Ed code you're referring to is specific to that course, if you didn't attend that specific school that was identified in ATRRS, during the time it had that identification code assigned, then it doesn't go into your military education section. What you do earn out of it is a technical certification, assuming your National Registry is still valid.

Agree with SFC (Join to see), won't affect your assignment as a 68C but you can pick up the ASI (3P - Nationally Registered Paramedic). Minor tweak to what he said though - A 68W with the F6 ASI is a Flight Medic. A 68W with the F2 ASI is a "flight paramedic" (Critical Care Flight paramedic) and is specifically ineligible for the 3P ASI.
Right now the only unit that has a 3P ASI (Nationally Registered Paramedic) is the U.S. Army Medical Center of Excellence (MEDCoE), but (my assumption) that would be for 68Ws only.
Further details on MILPER 22-350: https://www.hrc.army.mil/milper/22-350
Note: there is guidance that speaks to maintaining the certification IAW AR 40-68 to remain ASI qualified. It says for "personnel serving in MOS 68W", but likely it would apply to anyone with the ASI (just my assumption - don't know for sure).
