ACASPing 68C

Question, I am currently an LPN and I am about to join the Army Reserves as a 68C. I am prior service and am told that I will not have to redo basic, but no-one seems to know if I will have any AIT requirement. Anyone know if you have to do any AIT if you are ACASPing as an LPN? Thank you!

    What was your MOS before? If not 68C, then yes, AIT seems likely. Can't your recruiter find out?

    As long as you are licensed you should not have to go to AIT. What service were you in before? If it was Navy or AF plan on going to basic, not sure about USMC.

    I was a 13W, field artillery meteorological crewmember. I figured I might have to do some AIT, but I'm wondering how long I'll have to go since I am already an LPN

    When I was in the reserves and a prior service Army member joined and earned their LPN outside of the Army they did not have to go to AIT. But that was back in 2009 so ask the recruiter about this. Going to AIT would be a waste of limited funds the reserves have.

    I was thinking of the 68Ws I know who came in as EMT-Bs but still had to go to AIT — they just got to skip ahead. Hopefully they won't make AIT a requirement for you since you are prior service, too. Good luck!!

    I met an LPN during phase 1 of 68WM6 training (now it's just 68C, since they phased out the medic portion of training for LPN's) in 2008. She just had to do some training (probably less than 2 months) to be awarded her MOS, and it was mostly clinicals. Hope this helps.
