It is unlikely that after 1year or more training that you are going to be sent out to fight.
I see the logic is to foster more youth civic involvement and cohesion. There is upside to it, after 1 year or two , the government will pay for your education and it will also be a financial vehicle for some because you will get payed and this will benefit those from low income communities a lot.
Sweden, Norway, Russia, France all have mandatory national services and 80% of the ones who partake in it report positive benefits and recommend it.
Somalia for example during the the revolutionary government in the 70s/80s had a mandatory military service. You were then afterwards free to attend secondary education and the state would cover your educational expenses. So this is a scheme that is known to work well.
