Orders to PSC; AF AETC Instructor...

I found out today I have been selected to be an AETC Instructor at Ft. Lee VA, Air Transportation (2T2X1)..

I guess the only question I have if anyone has worked in AETC, do I go somewhere before i actually start to teaching for training or do i just show up and get spun up and start teaching.

 

You must attend the instructor course IF the material is certified by AETC and it awards an AFSC upon graduation.

 

They will send you to the instructor course either in-route or when you first get there. Should be something annotated in your orders about training.

 

I finally got an email back from them and I will go to BIC @ Ft. Lee when I get there

 

That's good. I loved instructor duty. Had a few AF guys/gals I worked with. They were very professional and knew their shit when it came to curriculum matters.

 

Good luck man! I'm sure your gonna do awesome!

 

Im the UTM at an Intel tech school in TX. You 'll complete BIC before you start teaching. If you do not have a degree you will have to complete internship. That lasts 12 months

 

That's good because I have my CCAF... Do tech school instructors get any extra pay

 

Congrats! Just don't be one of the instructors who gets caught having 'relations' with a student... Should look good on your Senior package, if you stay in long enough.

 

I read the title and thought you might have been headed to sheppard! but not

good luck!

 

I wish i was going to Texas

 

Sorry but there is no extra pay! Im happy to be in TX

 

Well.. Boo.. There should be

 

There have been some instructors that have had inappropriate relations with students! Pretty crazy! Most instructors i know don't really like instructing.

 

most don't get caught....
I didn't like instructing until I was there awhile....then it was cake

 

Interested in why there should be some extra pay for instructor duty?

 

The only thing I spent money on, more than usual, was dry cleaning. I had more uniforms too, 5 sets for winter and 5 sets for summer (we have these gay white and blue/black uniforms we change every 6 months). The white ones are polyester and they get dirty at the littlest thing. You couldn't put your hands in the pockets without getting the pocket dirty.
I did a lot more PT than usual too....we had daily PT sessions.
I spent a lot more time at work in the beginning. It usually takes 4 hours of prep time for every hour your on the podium. That can get taxing if you don't manage time well. We did get a lot more freedom to take personal time off though.
Now, the people at bootcamp...those are the people that deserve extra money...!!

 

For working a special duty assignment. im not looking for much.. but shit my buddy is in the Army and gets paid $150 a month to jump out of an airplane once a quarter.. I gotta Teach 5 days a week.. im just sayin.. it would be nice.

 

I doubt you'll on the podium everyday.....then again, I have no idea what subject you'll teach or how often you'll go through classes

 

I am teaching my job and when i went through class is was 5 days a week and 29 days of class.. so about 6 full weeks per class
