2-4. ARNG Features
As an ARNG representative, your knowledge and use of the specialized product information about the available entitlements and benefits is essential to your credibility and success. The acronym (TEAMS) is used to remember ARNG features and benefits. The following is a short synopsis of ARNG product knowledge.t of the enlistment contract.  Another feature of this training is that the enlistee does not have to pay for the training received. He/she gets paid a full-time salary for learning a skill.

* Education: The ARNG offers its Soldiers many opportunities to further their education. Military service affords individuals the opportunity to utilize several programs that can assist with tuition and also provide college-level credits. These benefits are provided through both State and federal programs. The following are some examples of ARNG education opportunities:

(1) Montgomery GI Bill: This program is administered through the Veterans Administration and provides participants with a monthly payment based on their enrollment status in an approved educational institution.  Benefits can be received as a full-time or part-time student.

See the ARNG Almanac or the youcannet.com for a current listing of State tuition waivers or talk with the State Education Services Officer (ESO).
(4) College Level Examination Program (CLEP): Many individuals with high Armed Forces Qualification Test (AFQT) scores, particularly in categories I and II, have the ability to pass CLEP tests. Each CLEP battery is worth 6 college hours. Individuals may take up to 5 CLEP batteries in a variety of subjects. The opportunity exists for gaining up to 30 college credit hours by simply passing the CLEP tests.
(5) Army Continuing Education System: This program offers college credits for some military training and experience. ARNG Soldiers may take advantage of this program by making application for evaluation of their military experience on DD Form 295, available through the State ESO.
