Attention Fort Hood Education Center Customers:
Due to the recent shutdown, BSEP is temporarily suspended. We will need to reschedule personnel that were confirmed in classes that were cancelled before we can release the new schedules. If you were confirmed to attend a class, we will reach out to you about options for future class dates when we are operational again. We appreciate your cooperation and patience while we restructure our schedules. We have suspended the mandatory briefings on Mondays, but will resume them soon.
Soldiers interested in enrolling in BSEP must attend a MANDATORY brief (when operational again). The BSEP brief will be held every Monday at 1045 in the Education Center (Building 33009, 761st Tank Battalion Ave). Soldier will check-in at the front desk (G201) and the brief will start promptly at 1045.
Email us at usarmy.hood.id-readiness.mbx.dhr-esd-bsep@army.mil for additional information or with questions.
The Basic Skills Education Program (BSEP) provides on-duty remediation in reading, mathematics, and test taking skills.
BSEP classes are closed on III Corps federal holidays. On training holidays, we will offer a study hall option.
The goals of the program are to:
Improve job proficiency
Raise GT scores for career advancement and reenlistment purposes
Increase potential for completing higher education and vocational technical programs
Eligibility: Soldiers looking to increase their GT score to a 110 or higher are encouraged to enroll in BSEP. Commanders may recommend enrollment in BSEP for Soldiers who do not meet reenlistment requirements or who may benefit from an academic refresher.
Enrollment:
Attend a MANDATORY BSEP brief held every Monday at 1045 Hrs (check-in at the front desk).
After the briefing, please create an account and complete the OASC Pre-Assessment on the DANTES/Peterson’s site: https://dantes.petersons.com/
Once you have completed your OASC Pre-Assessment, save the results as an Adobe .pdf labelled with your name and DoDID # on the document to the BSEP Organization mailbox usarmy.hood.id-readiness.mbx.dhr-esd-bsep@army.mil.
You will receive a student record and schedule from BSEP so that you can provide your information and desired class dates. Send the completed student record back to the BSEP mailbox.
You will then receive the BSEP Enrollment Form for the class you selected, a sample DA 4187, and all the information needed to enroll in BSEP via email approximately one week after submitting the BSEP Student Record with selected dates. Your commander must digitally sign both forms.
BSEP CLASSES ARE FILLED ON A FIRST COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS. Once a class is full, we no longer accept enrollment paperwork. We stop accepting ALL BSEP enrollment paperwork ONE WEEK before a class begins. NOTE: if you do not receive a confirmation email from BSEP, you are not enrolled in a class.
