SELRES Process

1) Submit request to Commanding Officer or designated representative to enroll in and receive credit for the applicable correspondence courses via NAVPERS 1336-3, Special Request/Authorization.
2) Once approved to complete a correspondence course, drilling Reservists must sign a NAVPERS 1070/613, Administrative Remarks, indicating their understanding that they may not receive retirement points for concurrent activities.
3) Reserve members cannot be awarded retirement points for correspondence courses completed while in an Active or Inactive duty status, for which retirement point credit is awarded.
4) SELRES must provide their Navy Reserve Activity (NRA) with a copy of the approved NAVPERS 1336/3 and course certificate of completion.
5) The NRA will verify the correspondence course is on the ASN approved list and that the member was not performing Inactive or Active service at the time of course completion prior to making the NSIPS entry.
