Rindam

Main Regiments of the Military Area Commands are Indonesian training centers and regimental depots serving newly recruited enlisted personnel of the 15 Military Area Commands of the Indonesian Army. These regiments are the regional command's home base for recruiting and training of personnel within their areas of responsibility.

Definition

Rindams are defined as a military educational institution under the direct control of the Military Area Command for enlisted and non-commissioned officers which have the main task of helping organize military training and education for all ranks of the RMC to produce soldiers who are professional, reliable, quality and have achieved basic military skills and tactical work for peace and wartime actions and are loved by the people not just of their communities but of the country at large. Rindam has several units in charge of conducting first, vocational and qualification education. Main Regiments are stationed in all 21 territorial commands of the Indonesian Army and are stationed in key Indonesian cities.

Organization

Each Main Regiment is led by a Commander commonly called Danrindam who is of Colonel rank, and is organized into :

Headquarters
Satuan Dodik Latpur
Satuan Dodik Kejuruan
Sekolah Calon Bintara
Sekolah Calon Tamtama
Satuan Dodik Bela Negara

When the Armed Forces Reserve Component was officially activated in 2021, 6 regional Rindam regiments gained an additional reserve battalion for the training and education of reserve personnel of the Army under these battalions, which come from all sectors of society. Each reserve battalion has 550 personnel and are under the direct control of the Rindam for training purposes.
The Commandant is assisted by the Main Regiments Executive Officer who holds the billet of a Lieutenant Colonel.

Regional NCO Candidate Schools

The Rindam NCO Candidate Schools or Sekolah Calon Bintara Rindam are the training battalions for basic and advanced training of newly promoted non-commissioned officers of the army's RMCs. These battalions provide necessary training for personnel advancement into NCO status.
