etiquette.

basic Navy Reserve commitment involves training a minimum of one
weekend a month (referred to as drilling) and two weeks a year
(referred to as Annual Training) - or the equivalent.

the ongoing professional training that comes with this job, initial
training requirements must first be met.
For current or former Navy Officers (NAVET): Prior experience

structure of the U.S. Navy, its rich history of traditions and
customs, leadership development and military etiquette.There may be
an option for attendees to request to split the five-week program
into two sessions.
With flexible training options, Nurses in the Navy Reserve can
comfortably balance civilian and military schedules. You can
maintain your own life and your own practice - enriching both with
the rewarding work you do for others.
The Navy Nurse Corps offers a truly diverse variety of academic,
clinical and operational settings in which to practice. In some
cases, you can even work in the same civilian setting you work in
now. What's more, you will enjoy an unrivaled sense of pride and
fulfillment known only to those who serve.
