Does prior AIT count towards promotion points?

I will be reclassing soon and I was wondering if my first AIT will count as military education or any promotion points once I have received my new MOS?

AIT does not count towards pro­mo­tion points regard­less if the Soldier reclasses into a new MOS and went through two AITs.

AR 600–8-19, Par 3-44b spec­i­fies what train­ing is not valid for pro­mo­tions points:

 The fol­low­ing courses are not valid for the award­ing of pro­mo­tion points under mil­i­tary education:
(1) Completion of BCT, advanced indi­vid­ual train­ing, and new equip­ment training.
(2) ASI, spe­cial qual­i­fi­ca­tions iden­ti­fier (SQI), or lan­guage iden­ti­fi­ca­tion code (LIC) course required to hold qual­i­fi­ca­tion in or be awarded an MOS.
(3) ASI, SQI, or LIC received because of MOS restruc­tur­ing instead or suc­cess­ful com­ple­tion of the required course.
(4) Attendance at the USMAPS or the United States Military Academy.
(5) On-the-job train­ing and on-the-job experience, includ­ing sergeants time training.
(6) OCS, WOC Course, and SLC.
(7) Duplicate mil­i­tary cor­re­spon­dence and mil­i­tary edu­ca­tion courses. (For exam­ple, a Soldier attends Combat Lifesaver Course and com­pletes the Army Correspondence Course Program Combat Lifesaver Course. The Soldier receives points for the one com­pleted first.)
(8) Military courses com­pleted in the other Armed Forces that were required to hold qual­i­fi­ca­tion in or be awarded a MOS/rate.
(9) Federal Emergency Management Agency Courses (see ATRRS).
