That's a good attitude to have. I don't know how you can get to the younger guys. That's a tough one. Most of them just want to drink, go out and drink, or hang out in the barracks and drink. I know I was like that as a PV2-SPC haha.
Maybe as an encouragement to the younger guys set aside some time at work to study and reward the ones who pass. Or you could give briefings to all the company's in the BN. You never know who might be interested. If you get the CoC on board, maybe you could get the guys who knock out a certain number of credits a 4 day pass or something.
I don't think you can really force them to study without having them resent it though. Maybe start out with FEMA's and show them how easy it actually is, then move on to CLEP and DSST.
