*(4) Clause 19 of the Procedure for organizing and implementing educational activities for additional professional programs.
*(5) Hereinafter in the text of this Procedure, unless otherwise specified, military units are understood as military command and control bodies, associations, formations, military units and organizations of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
*(6) Hereinafter in the text of this Procedure, unless otherwise stated, for brevity will be referred to as: the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation - the Ministry of Defense, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation - the Armed Forces.
*(7) Article 19, paragraph 4 federal law dated May 27, 1998 N 76-FZ "On the status of military personnel".
In 2009, an experiment was launched in the Russian Federation, within the framework of which, the military, who were transferred to the reserve, could optionally go through one of 60 professional retraining programs in order to master relevant professions related to the technical, managerial and even ICT sphere. Retraining courses were opened directly in the largest garrisons. And the military, who served in especially remote settlements, could be trained thanks to mobile visiting groups of teachers from leading universities of the Ministry of Defense. More than 30 universities took part in this program at that time.
This practice turned out to be successful and it was decided to extend the experiment in subsequent years. Thus, the retraining of military personnel in 2015 is also carried out. The gist is this:
Please note that retraining on a budgetary basis for military personnel is not yet possible in all universities of the Russian Federation. Guaranteed free education provided only in the military educational institutions Russia.
At the same time, various civil universities may offer retired military personnel preferential terms for retraining programs and even provide them with employment assistance services.
It should be noted that the content of retraining programs for military personnel is no different from the information content of similar courses in the same specialties for civilians.
Because within the framework this experiment more than 60 different retraining programs are being implemented, this section of the article describes in detail only three of them, which are the most popular. The teaching load for each of the programs below is at least 500 academic hours.
To enroll in a retraining course under the budget program, the military must submit to the personnel department of his unit a copy of his identity card, the corresponding report on and a copy of the certificate of vocational education. Studying can take place in full-time, distance learning or the so-called evening form of education. In addition, the retraining of military personnel who are transferred to the reserve, after their dismissal, can also be carried out according to the military profile. If you are a former career military "in civilian life" and the highest state leadership will decide to update your military professional skills or train you in a new military specialty, before you turn 50, you may receive an official call for military training, where you will have to take the appropriate training course.
As for this year, in accordance with the criteria of Order No. 95 (2009) of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation as amended by Orders No. 406 (2010), No. 313 (2011) and No. 494 (2013), retraining of military personnel will be implemented after the implementation of a set of listeners that meet the necessary criteria. The enrollment for the courses will end in the first half of 2015.
Law No. 76-FZ (05/27/1998) determines that citizens serving in the Armed Forces in accordance with a contract are considered military personnel if their total length of service is 5 years or more. In particular this case, when calculating the amount of the existing total length of service, the terms of training in specialized military colleges (universities) are not taken into account. In the year of dismissal, officers can undergo professional retraining free of charge in order to obtain a full-fledged civilian specialty, giving them the right to conduct labor activity new type. In the process of learning, they retain all types of allowance. If at the time of such retraining the officer is still in the service, the training period for him should be no more than 4 calendar months. If, in the process of undergoing a retraining program, a particular military man is transferred to the reserve, he, with every right to do so, can complete his training on a budgetary basis.
According to established standards, after the servicemen have submitted all required documents, the command of the educational institution, on the basis of which retraining programs are being implemented, sends to military unit where the applicant for participation in the retraining course is serving, a written notice indicating the form, method, place and date of the training. If it is determined that a serviceman will take the program of further education in the evening form of training, then the unit commander of this potential student of the course issues a special referral to the serviceman, and an appropriate order is issued in the unit itself.
Military personnel undergoing professional retraining programs are considered seconded during the course and are actually on a business trip with all the ensuing circumstances (rank retention, salary, travel allowances and all required types of allowances).

Upon completion of training, you will receive a state diploma / certificate (license for educational activities 34L01 0000804 dated 08/04/2014) by mail.
I am resigning at the end of my contract. He expressed a desire to undergo professional retraining in a civilian specialty at the Far Eastern Federal District in Blagoveshchensk.

In this regard, inform the commander in a report and indicate the need to conduct an administrative investigation into these facts.
He can't blame anyone.
Report to the commander with a request to plan and send you for retraining at another time, since you are essentially deprived of it. Subsequently, in court, you will demand reinstatement in the service, since retraining was not completed through the fault of the command. Now the main thing is to fix violations
Ask our lawyers a question - it's much faster than looking for a solution.
I will finish the story about the major, which began here
In early November, after he found out about the exclusion during the PP period, I dashed off a statement to the prosecutor's office for him, and he kicked it off through the prosecutor's office website in the Main Headquarters and the VP of the Southern Military District. As a result, the Volgograd GVP was sorted out.
He arrived on December 24 in the unit after the PP. By this time, already in the unit and the higher part (which is with Alushta) there were submissions from the VP regarding the failure to deliver the order to the place of registration and the failure to provide additional. vacation for 2016 (veteran). Well, as usual. everything is veteivato written, a violation is simply stated. So what. no expulsion order has been issued, nothing has been done, the regiment is waiting for the actions of their superiors (with Alushta). In short, as a result, the major writes the numbers from December 27 to the add. vacation for 2016, he is "suggested" by personnel cretins that you are still entitled to an additional one and for 2017 plus another 4 days of the main day for the month served, on the road. In general, he leaves for Balashikha with a vacation ticket, makes notes on arrival and departure. In general, he is on vacation until January 31, 2017.
Bottom line: only the date of the order of January 31 cancels all its exceptions in October, excludes January 31, indicates the provision of basic and additional holidays for 2017, etc.
In general, idiots walk the streets in droves. and in the army personnel they are also going
True, it was not possible to enter the purely service for at least one day in 2017
But nevertheless, let's try a checkmate. help to recapture for 2017, since vacations for 2017 were provided, albeit due to the stupidity of personnel officers, but nevertheless, according to a separate report, by a separate order, and not by an exclusion order. So the situation does not fall under the case of non-payment of MP for PMO 2700 "when the vacation ends next year upon dismissal."
Here is a story with a happy ending. True, the money for October-January has not yet been transferred, of course.

nothing is said about it at all, therefore, discrepancies and disagreements are possible. Nothing prevents the court from deciding to write something like that. nothing prevented the applicant from performing his official duties (or - the general duties of military personnel) during the passage of a distance learning program actually on the territory of the military unit where he is on the lists of personnel.
Or - the fulfillment of the requirements of the commander of the military unit upon arrival at the morning formation did not in any way affect the realization of the applicant's right to pass the checkpoint.
I have read similar pearls more than once.
Everything, of course, IMHO

The legal position of a lawyer depends on the position he occupies.
A lawyer always has his own legal position, but he does not always agree with it.
Following this logic, we can assume that nothing prevents a soldier from performing his official duties even on vacation.
In fact, an order was issued to send a soldier for retraining to another city, an order was issued at an educational institution to enroll a soldier in retraining courses for full-time and part-time education.
a2712ndrey wrote: The source of the quote on vacation nothing prevents a warrior from performing his official duties
Give you a link to the court decision, where the following is written (I quote)
"The argument of the complaint that during the period of professional retraining Lukin performed the duties of military service is untenable, since the serviceman. during the period of leave, bears the general duties of military service.
As for official duties, the judge decided not to write, but about general duties - yes please!

It is even BIG luck that such an order has been issued and you know about the existence of such an order. You just need to quickly take an extract from such an order.
Fall down, get up. Fall a hundred times, get up a hundred times! I'm sure you're right - rot your line. Our cause is just - we will win!
Hello!
Is the commander's refusal to be sent for retraining legal due to the fact that the selected courses began on 09.01, and the report was written on 13.01?
finaev wrote: can it be implemented in the second half of the year?
Why not? Just write a report in advance. Based on the data submitted by your personnel authorities, study groups are formed in the educational institution, the number of students in them is limited. After the groups are formed, a call will be sent to the unit, on the basis of which you will be sent for retraining.

I am a soldier, subject to dismissal from military service next year upon reaching the age limit. Do I have the right to retrain and where should I apply with a report?
The question is answered by the senior assistant to the military prosecutor of the Baltic Fleet, Colonel of Justice Vasiliev A.V.
In pursuance of the Federal Law of May 27, 1998 No. 76-FZ “On the Status of Military Personnel”, on November 12, 2015, the Ministry of Justice of Russia registered a new Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of October 21, 2015 No. 630 “On the procedure and conditions for professional retraining in one of the civilian specialties of certain categories of military personnel - citizens of the Russian Federation, undergoing military service under a contract. The order comes into force on November 28, 2015. This order defines the procedure and conditions for professional retraining in one of the civilian specialties of servicemen - citizens of the Russian Federation, who are serving under a contract.
Professional retraining is carried out subject to the total duration of the military service of a serviceman on a calendar basis of 5 years or more (not counting the time of training in military professional educational organizations and military educational organizations of higher education) in the year of dismissal from military service upon reaching the age limit for military service, expiration term of military service, state of health or in connection with organizational and staff activities.
It has been established that retraining in one of the civilian specialties is carried out by a military educational organization of higher education of the Russian Ministry of Defense under additional professional programs of professional retraining lasting up to 4 months. Retraining is carried out in full-time, part-time and part-time forms of education.
Military personnel who have expressed a desire to undergo professional retraining shall submit a report to the commanders (chiefs) of military units. In this case, the report must be submitted by the person being dismissed from military service:
upon reaching the age limit for military service or upon the expiration of the term of military service - not earlier than one year before the age limit for military service or the expiration of the contract, taking into account the terms that ensure their direction for professional retraining during military service;
Retraining of military personnel before dismissal is a federal program and operates throughout the country. If necessary, a serviceman who is transferred to the reserve from the current contract service may be trained in a civilian specialty. The law allows attending a military university free of charge, but with the requirement that the university belongs to the Ministry of Defense.
The base of the program is installed in Order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation of October 21, 2015 No. 630(on the procedure and conditions for professional retraining in one of the civilian specialties). The sets themselves are produced semi-annually. Each enrollment goes through a group distribution, which refers to different universities of the Moscow Region.
The order also regulates the procedure for enrolling military personnel in training groups.
Important! The soldier must not have disciplinary action and others negative points, which in the future are grounds for dismissal.
Lists of military personnel who express a desire to undergo civilian retraining must be compiled before the training period and transferred to the required educational institution located in close proximity to the places of service.
The training itself has two forms: full-time and part-time.
It should be borne in mind that in order to undergo retraining, you will need to complete the standard procedure for enrolling in training.
Retraining has been introduced for more comprehensive social protection of officers and other categories of servicemen. After retraining, which consists in taking courses, it is possible to enter the chosen educational institution on preferential terms. Also a significant plus is the assistance of the university in further employment after graduation.
If a soldier wants to undergo retraining, he receives a special certificate according to the quota. If the chosen specialty is outside the scope free program, then the serviceman himself must pay the financial difference.
Training is provided in various areas. There are currently more than 60 professions available.
Important! The list of budget directions varies in each higher education institution.
For retraining, the desire of a soldier is required. This is the main point. If you want to get a civilian specialty, the procedure has a standard form:
Important! Documents are sent to the military university by the immediate superior of the military personnel who are undergoing retraining.
List of documents that are provided to the educational institution:
In the future, the form of training for the selected training group is established for each serviceman.
After completing the retraining, the serviceman receives state documents that indicate the presence of a specialty.
Not all military personnel qualify for retraining. There are also nuances that relate to the moments of dismissal. For example, there is a list of circumstances that allow you to take civilian-type courses. All other options for dismissal will not work.
The requirement for candidates for retraining is that a serviceman must have at least five years of experience. At the same time, the time of training of a professional type is not included in this period.
Retraining can be carried out in the following cases:
Important! Basically, retraining is used by officers who have previously undergone special military education. For other categories of military personnel, retraining is rarely used.
List of documents:
The report must also state:
All documents must be submitted to the personnel department personally or through the direct commander. In the future, they are sent from there to the necessary educational institution.
There are no entrance exams for retraining. But there is one caveat. Retraining on a budgetary basis is possible only in relation to one specialty in a one-time variant.
Standard training time does not exceed 4 months. The minimum retraining time is 250 hours.
In a number of educational institutions, distance learning is possible, which has replaced the distance version.
After the final certification, the soldier will receive a diploma that will allow him to work in his specialty. The very fact of receiving retraining is entered into the personal file of a serviceman.
If necessary, retired military personnel can receive retraining, which includes obtaining a civilian specialty, chosen independently. The process of passing is regulated by a special order and is established for all federal territories of the Russian Federation.
The program, according to which the retraining of military personnel transferred to the reserve takes place, has been successfully coping with its tasks for about ten years now. Before leaving the army, servicemen are offered to undergo professional retraining in one of sixty civilian specialties to choose from. To do this, stationary courses operate in large military units, and mobile groups of teachers are sent to remote garrisons.
The main objective of the program is to promote the social adaptation of officers when they are transferred to the reserve due to a reduction in the number of personnel or the complete disbandment of military units, as well as for other reasons. The state provides support to retired military personnel in acquiring qualifications in the most sought-after civilian specialties.
Over the ten years of the program, a significant number of former officers and members of officer families have successfully taken advantage of the retraining program for retired military personnel. They took courses in last years service in the army, and after retirement they were able to get a job in civilian specialties. Activities under this program are held in all military districts of the Russian Federation.
Universities and other educational institutions participating in the state retraining program provide an opportunity not only to master a promising peaceful profession, but also provide assistance in further employment in it. In addition to helping you get actual education there is an opportunity to receive legal support, as well as participation in various conferences and other professional events that increase the likelihood of a successful job. Retraining of military personnel before dismissal is carried out in the following areas:
Assistance in the civil adaptation of military personnel is not only in the possibility of passing retraining courses. Those who wish can take entrance exams to higher educational institutions at preferential terms to receive education and increase their competitiveness in the labor market.
According to the law “On the status of military personnel”, the right to participate in the retraining program is reserved for those liable for military service who retired to the reserve no more than one year ago. You can become a member of the program provided that:
Professional retraining services are provided free of charge, while military personnel retain the right to receive monetary allowances in accordance with the provisions approved by the Ministry of Defense. The duration of retraining can be up to four months (at least two hundred and fifty academic hours). Training will remain free, even if during its passage the officer is transferred to the reserve. The military court for the retraining of the dismissed is engaged in resolving disputed issues.
Reaching the age limit for military service is one of the grounds for receiving assistance from the state in professional reorientation in a civilian specialty. Maximum allowable age officer depends on his rank and is regulated by federal law and orders of the President of the Russian Federation.
Previously, the general term of service for an officer was limited to the age of 45 years. After the revision of the current legislation in 2014, it was extended by five years. Now only female military personnel can retire at the age of 45. For officers with a rank below a colonel or captain of the first rank, the maximum age for transfer to the reserve began to be fifty years. If an officer has the rank of general and above, it can be increased to sixty-five years.
Officers who wish to continue military service after reaching the age limit can do so by concluding a new contract with the RF Armed Forces. Such a contract may be concluded for a period of one to ten years. The decision on the possibility or impossibility of further service may be influenced by the service record, recommendations and characteristics of the officer, as well as the level of his qualifications and general health.
If the officer does not want to continue serving in the ranks of the armed forces, then for the period of retraining and in the future, he retains the right to full pension provision and all benefits due by law.
The enrollment of student officers in groups for training in retraining courses is carried out on the basis of an order of the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation. To do this, a list of military personnel sent to receive civilian professions, copies of reports and diplomas on previously received civilian or military education are sent to higher educational institutions, on the basis of which it is planned to conduct retraining courses for personnel.
After a soldier ceases to hold his position for one of the reasons that allow him to count on participation in the state program for the retraining of military personnel before dismissal in a civilian specialty, he is issued a certificate of the established form. This document confirms that its holder has the right to undergo professional retraining in the desired specialty at the higher education institution of their choice, provided that it is among those participating in the program.
If the amount of tuition fees exceeds the stipulated standard of cash contributions provided as part of the implementation of the professional retraining program for military personnel before dismissal, the officer will be forced to compensate for the difference from his own funds. It should be remembered that free education is not provided in higher educational institutions that do not participate in the state program, but in all universities there are benefits for admission for former military personnel.
The procedure for enrolling in retraining courses for officers transferred to the reserve in 2017 (as in 2018) for free training is as follows. A soldier who wants to study in a civilian specialty, must submit to the HR department of the training center:
All available forms of education are available: full-time, evening, remote. There is no need to participate in entrance examinations.
According to the retraining program, you can get not only the current specialty of a civilian orientation, but also master a new military specialization (if you wish to continue serving). Before reaching the age of fifty, a serviceman transferred to the reserve may receive a call from the local military registration and enlistment office to undergo military training, at which he will be able to complete the required course of study.
After handing over the papers, the command of the institution where the serviceman wants to be trained sends a notification to the military unit. This document should contain information such as the form of study, time and place of the course. After that, the command of the unit issues the required direction to the future retrained person, and an order is issued for the military unit.
Students of such courses during the training period have the status of seconded and are officially on a business trip. Therefore, they have the right to keep military rank, monetary allowance, travel allowances and all other required privileges.
