AECP Army FY 13 Candidate

Specialties Government

Published

I am currently an active duty soldier that is in the process of putting together my AECP packet which is due June 30. There isn't anyone in my unit or that I know that can relate or understand this process. I am looking for anyone that has insight and could answer some specific questions about this process....

I thought I would share one of the post I got from the IPAP's facebook page that I found interesting:

"I fear we may not see it (MILPER) until right before 1 October, or shortly after. I have a sneaking suspicion that this has a lot more to do with the outlook for the FY13 budget than spelling and grammar corrections on the MILPER, as I had originally fantasized. Unfortunately, I start on the long Afghanistan-bound journey tomorrow...*sigh*"

Did anyone else consider budget constraints for the delay?

I would most certainly hope that the army would not cut on these programs- health care prof. are not making lines to join the service, in addition there are more than a few that retire or simply ETS- thus I would doubt that "higher" would mess with its one somewhat liable way to increase important assets. Good luck to all!

I am inclined to agree with you. I have seen multiple stories, news articles, etc that talk about a nursing shortage over the next ten years. So, if it does have anything to do with the budget, it would more than likely be along the lines of waiting for the budget to be lain out. But who really knows these things. Just hope shmegan20 is right lol. :)

Well maybe next week :(

Pa program results just posted :(

WOOHOO! My friend made it to the IPAP! Now that we got that out of the way, COME ON AECP!!!

I have been telling myself that maybe the budject is the hold up. I see that the IPAP message it out, now I am hoping for AECP soon.

this just adds to my anxiety lol! I have a solid source that hinted at another 2 weeks for the results to come out so that would be the first week of october probably friday like the ipap was. However I really hope is this friday. I have a 72hr top medic competition starting wednesday and wont be able to check the milper; it will be SOOOO great to be done with my thing then check the milper and find my name ;) !!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY!!
