What is the Instructor Education Program?
Prior to service as a Warfighting Instructor, Section OIC or BOC Commander all officers must complete the Instructor Education Program (IEP) 100 Course.  IEP 100 will afford you the opportunity to teach students and qualify events; therefore, completing this course as soon as able is paramount.
