Is getting my Soldiers to take college courses and take (FREE!!) CLEP/DSST/ECE exams. I don't get why it's so hard to motivate these guys but it is. I have had some impact but it took so much time and effort to get people off their butts. Have any other NCOs or Officers here had better success with this? Any ideas that help motivate these troops?
