I will try and overlap that with the leave accrued from mil duties to minimize the trough in pay between jobs.
You need to give 30 day written notice for your return, per the law. Then, on day 31 you are back in the payroll, with or without training on day 31. Some time after day 31, usually fairly quickly since they are paying you, you will see your training get scheduled.
