In-processing Overview

In-processing Overview (CAO: 20240514)

For most of you, there are three entities you need to in-process with:

  1. 51福利 - your school
  2. Air Force Institute of Technology, Civilian Institution Programs (AFIT/CI) - your ADCON
  3. 517th Training Group - your local area personnel/finance/comms/fitness/medical support

This is dependent on whether you are enrolled in a program that exceeds one quarter (more than three months) or is one quarter (just three months).  Select the appropriate tabs below for your situation.

For both groups, Air Force Element has an informal "in-processing" which involves a briefing during Orientation Day and joining our MS Teams group in the  domain.
