New hire with upcoming National Guard tech school

I just accepted a full-time software engineering offer with Boeing, with a start date early in September.

I’m also currently in the Air National Guard and have mandatory tech school starting in mid September that is expected to last around 5 months. Has anyone here dealt with a similar situation?

Mainly wondering:

  • How does Boeing handle military leave for a brand-new employee?
  • Would they normally have me start in early September and then place me on military leave?
  • Could they instead push my start date until after tech school?
  • Who should I notify first - recruiter, manager, or HR?
  • If you've gone through this, how was the process with Boeing?

I’m excited and definitely want to keep the role, I just a little nervous that they might rescind the offer.
