Reservists automatically qualify for 48 IDT periods of training each fiscal year. For traditional reservists, IDT is intended to be used one weekend a month for your drill weekend. Each IDT period must be at least 4 hours long and the member receives one drill pay for completing one IDT period. In a typical drill weekend you will complete 4 IDT periods. IDT periods can be rescheduled if there is a conflict with another training period or for the needs of the Navy.
