Even then, they are usually required to attend MOS training for the military specific portion of their MOS.1. The closest thing we have to OJT is ACASP for civilians who acquired a skill, have the certifications and experience in the field.

This is the Army teaching model and it's used in every certified training from CLS to MOS retraining.

Schools certify instructors prior to allowing them to teach. This is why OJT is not performed anymore. Now people are dead and millions of dollars in property damage are done. Now, fast forward a year and that new 15T misses something they would have been taught in the course but was never covered in OJT. If he worked every single day without the other requirements such as PHA, APFT, EO, Range time, etc, that's less than 90 days of training over 3 years. A 15B E4 in the NG who only does his job during drill and AT. The truth about MOSs is that the MOS propenent of each MOS sets the standard for what is acceptable knowledge, experience, and training to be awarded that MOS. I remember people saying that back then, it's one of those rumors that won't die. I'm pretty sure they got rid of that before I joined the Guard in 2004.
