data-qid="1555"> <button>×</button> <strong>What kind of training do service members receive?</strong> <div class="gtm-inline-answer"> <p>All recruits begin by undergoing their Service branch’s version of <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/joining-eligibility/boot-camp">Basic Training</a>, commonly known as boot camp. While boot camp varies in duration from Service to Service, the focus is the same: preparing recruits physically, mentally and emotionally for their future in the Military.</p> <p>Following Basic Training, service members receive <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/advanced-training">advanced training</a> in their specialty. A variety of training methods are used, including classroom instruction, field exercises and simulations. Ongoing training is also available in most specialties to keep service members’ skills sharp.</p> </div> </div> <button class="question js-orphan" data-qid="1556">Can service members attend college and earn a degree?</button> <div class="answer" data-qid="1556"> <button>×</button> <strong>Can service members attend college and earn a degree?</strong> <div class="gtm-inline-answer"> <p>Yes. All Service branches offer the opportunity for higher education, both during and after service. Many military training programs count toward <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/college-credit">course credit</a>, while some branches offer classes on base or online (the Air Force, for instance, has its own community college). All service members are eligible for tuition support through the <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/paying-college#jump-the-post-9%2f11-gi-bill">Post-9/11 GI Bill</a> and other <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/paying-college#jump-loan-repayment-programs">tuition repayment programs</a>.</p> <p>High school students interested in officer careers may wish to enroll in a <a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/rotc-programs">Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC)</a> program at the college of their choice. In exchange for a service commitment, ROTC provides college scholarships and leadership training.</p> <p><a href="https://www.todaysmilitary.com/education-training/military-schools">Service academies</a> offer another opportunity for young adults.
