ATRRS IS THE STANDARD RESERVATION SYSTEM USED FOR ASSIGNMENT AND STUDENT MANAGEMENT FOR ALL COURSES CONDUCTED AT THE BIOMEDICAL EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN TRAING SCHOOL, METC, FORT SAM HOUSTON, TX. THEREFORE, ALL RESERVATIONS, REGARDLESS OF MEMBERS BRANCH OF SERVICE, MUST BE REFLECTED IN ATRRS.
Army National Guard and Reservist
USAR Soldiers will need to request training through their unit ATRRS Manager. Their unit ATRRS Manager will need to correspond with the USAR Quota Manager. The USAR Quota Manger will need to correspond with the Medical Education & Training Campus(METC) and AMEDDC&S for course schedules and availability.
Active duty military and DA civilians have priority when requesting a functional course. US Army Reserves and National Guard are slotted on a space available basis.
Select primary and alternate date(s) for attendance from course schedule.
Navy
Navy personnel will need to submit request via regular mail or email to the METC registrar (
dha.jbsa.education-trng-dir.mbx.metc-registrar@mail.mil). The information specific to the Army 3838 form does not apply to Navy applicants.
Navy applicants will simply have to ensure that their command is providing TDY funding for travel and lodging for the scope of the course. The registrar has not stated this as a requirement for a reservation, however, I feel it should be included as a statement under the Navy section.
Please make sure the following information is provided in an Word document attachment accompanying the reservation request:
NAME, RANK, SSN, NEC, CLASS # and/or CLASS DATES, DUTY TITLE, COMMAND NAME, COMMAND ADDRESS AND ZIP CODE, MEMBER CONTACT NUMBER, EMAIL ADDRESS (to receive verification of enrollment), SECURITY CLEARANCE LEVEL, DUTY STATUS (Active, Reserve, etc.)
The request will be processed upon receipt. You will be subsequently entered into ATRRS.
