Which Army Regulation directs the Army's mandatory training requirements?

• A. AR 350-1
• B. AR 600-9
• C. AR 670-1
• D. AR 600-20

Answer: (A)

Mandatory training for the Army is governed by Army Regulation 350-1, Army Training and Leader Development. This regulation establishes the policy for how training is planned, scheduled, and executed across the force, including which trainings are mandatory, how often they must be completed, and who is responsible for ensuring completion and recording it. It provides the framework that ensures all soldiers and Army civilians meet baseline readiness through standardized requirements, not just ad hoc instruction. The other regulations referenced cover different areas—body composition, dress and appearance, and command policy—and do not prescribe the Army’s mandatory training requirements.
