In 2005, the PRES Sup Tech course was 5 weeks. It is now 12 weeks which works out well if you are a student. I am 34 yrs. old and it has been very difficult to get that time off from work. Is this the future of the Sup Tech ql3 courses? I don't want to quit the Army but there may be no other alternative if the ql3 courses stay this length. Any feed back?
