 CAREER ROADMAP

Fireman Recruit to Master Chief Roadmap

The educational roadmap below will assist Sailors in the Electrician's Mate community through the process of pursuing
professional development and advanced education using various military and civilian resources e.g. PQS program; JST Joint
Service Transcript; E-Learning; Navy College Network; etc. Successful leadership is the key to military readiness and will always
require a high degree of technical skill, professional knowledge, and intellectual development.

What is a Career Roadmap for Electrician's Mate?

Electrician's Mate roadmaps are just what the name implies - a roadmap through the Enlisted Learning and Development
Continuum from Fireman Recruit through Master Chief. The principal focus is to standardize a program Navy wide by featuring
the existing skills necessary to be successful in the Navy. The ultimate goal of a roadmap is to produce a functional and
competent Sailor.

What is the Enlisted Learning and Development Continuum?

Enlisted Learning and Development Continuum is the formal title given to the curriculum and process building on the foundation
of Sailorization beginning in our Delayed Entry Program through Recruit Training Command and throughout your entire career.
The continuum combines skill training, professional education, well-rounded assignments, and voluntary education. As you
progress through your career, early-on skill training diminishes while professional military education gradually increases.
Experience is the ever-present constant determining the rate at which a Sailor trades skill training for professional development.

Do Sailors have to follow the Roadmap?

Yes. The Electrician's Mate roadmap includes the four areas encompassed by the Continuum in Professional Military Education
to include; Navy Professional Military Education (NPME), Joint Professional Military Education (JPME), Leadership and
Advanced Education.
Some training and education is mandatory (Recruit Training, Electrician’s Mate School at Great Lakes, E-Learning, etc.). Some
may be directed by your chain of command (Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint courses), and the remainder is voluntary (MNP, E-
Learning, college courses, etc.). Sailors are advised to seek out mentors, including your Command Master Chief, Senior
Enlisted Advisor, Leading Chief Petty Officer, Leading Petty Officer and Command Career Counselor, and to make use of your
Navy College Virtual Education Center (VEC) or OCONUS Education Office's vast resources. All are uniquely qualified to help
you along the way.

Occupational and Readiness Standards (OaRS) to E4
NAVEDTRA 44035
NAME:
These Occupational and Readiness Standards (OaRS) may be used to validate minimum competencies for performing various rating-
specific tasks in paygrade E4 in this rating. OaRS is based on the Occupational Standards (OCCSTDs) for the rating/paygrade. An E4
should possess the minimum competencies of their rating/paygrade, whereby OaRS may provide benefits as a tool to train towards and
track those competencies achieved.

OaRS does not address ship/unit/system specific standards, which may be covered within Personnel Qualification Standards (PQS),
Job Qualification Requirements (JQR), or local training/qualification programs. OaRS addresses the overall rating at the E4 level, not
the Sailor’s position, billet, or duty assignment.

Generally, each OaRS task area encompasses one or more occupational standards on the same or similar subjects and is written in
on-the-job rating language. Completion indicates the Sailor can perform the tasks or can articulate knowledge of the tasks. If
circumstances exist that limits a Sailor’s ability to effectively demonstrate any OaRS task element due to equipment configuration,
mission, or operational status, the Sailor can seek training or understanding from his/her peers, leadership, or refer to technical
manuals.

OaRS completion is voluntary and is not designed to replace other qualification programs (e.g. PQS, JQR). OaRS items that duplicate
"sign off" items in these types of programs can be signed off if they have already been signed off under any of these types of programs.

Task signatures are completed between the Sailor and the Sailor’s supervisor, Leading Petty Officer (LPO) or E5 or above designee.
Task sections are signed off by the Division Leading Chief or designee. Endorsement of completion of all OaRS tasks/sections are
validated by the Division Officer, Department LCPO, Department Head, and Command Career Counselor (CCC).

 MilGears: MilGears leverages the COOL platform to provide Service members with a personalized, self-assessment of the
individual’s military training & experience and off-duty education & credentialing, for the purposes of providing
recommendations and next steps to pursue and achieve industry credentialing, in-service advancement, and ultimately post-
service employment. Use MilGears to build a comprehensive record that captures all the learning, experience, and related skills
you’ve gained to support preparation for career advancement. MilGears will provides multiple search methods to find
credentials that can help build your subject matter expertise related to your military career, as well as prepare you for a career
after transition. Use your time in service to pursue certifications, education, and experience that can help you achieve your goals.

Of the several tools found on MilGears, the two most common that Sailors would use are the Engage My Career Tool and the
Quick Explorer Tool.

ENGAGE MY CAREER TOOL

The Engage My Career (EMC) Tool, available from the MilGears home page, analyzes your unique history to provide
customized results. The EMC Tool looks at what you've done in the military to date by guiding you through a series of questions
that collect information such as: your rating, pay grade, duty station history, training, NECs, qualifications (applicable to Mariner
careers), and civilian education or credentials. The EMC Tool then takes this information and helps you determine your best path
forward by showing you the possible occupation options you may be eligible for based on your current experience.

Customized output includes:

Civilian occupations that may be attainable or nearly attainable.

Apprenticeships, certifications, and education that can help you fill training gaps or that could make you more competitive
in the job market.
How You Stack Up - a detailed view of how you compare to the typical requirements for civilian occupations and
credentials.
Next Steps - recommendations to fill gaps to enter an occupational field.

QUICK EXPLORER TOOL

The Quick Explorer Tool, available from the MilGears home page, allows Service members to explore occupations without
uploading personal information.

The following areas are available for exploration:

Credentials - explore pathways related to a specific credential such as a degree, a certification, a USMAP apprenticeship
or a federal license.
Career Goals - explore pathways based on career goals through job family, industry and more.
Military Occupation - explore pathways by MOC to view ‘best-fit’ pathways based your military occupation. Pathways
include academic, industry, apprenticeship, cross-rate opportunities, and post-service employment opportunities.
Interests - answer a series of questions designed to discover your personal interests and connect them to career
pathways.

Canvasser Recruiter (CANREC)

The Canvasser Recruiter (CANREC) Recall Program is a voluntary and temporary recall program for RC personnel to serve as
production recruiters in support of the Navy Prior Service recruiting mission. Personnel eligible to volunteer for a Definite (also
termed as “temporary”) Recall to Active Duty (ACDU) as a CANREC are Reserve Component (RC) members, specifically
Selected Reserve (SELRES), Individual Ready Reserve (IRR-ASP), and Voluntary Training Unit (VTU) personnel.
For additional information, go to:
[Link]

Career Waypoints-Reenlistment:
The Command Career Counselor is your local advocate to assist you with the Career Waypoints application process.
E3-E6 Sailors with less than 14 years of service must submit a Career Waypoints application, regardless of reenlistment
intentions. Sailors who do not desire to reenlist will submit an "intends to separate" application. Sailors not eligible for
reenlistment will submit a "not eligible" application.
The Career Waypoints system automatically generates most of the applications needed by Sailors. Applications must be
submitted no later than 16 months prior to expiration of active/reserve obligated service (EAOS/EOS) or as extended
(SEAOS/SEOS). Sailors with less than 24 months of contract time remaining at their projected rotation date (PRD) will
submit an application 15 months prior to their PRD. In either case, the Career Waypoints system will automatically generate
EM - Electrician's Mate - E1 Page 34 of 50
 applications for Sailors 18 months prior to either timeframe. Applications required outside of the established C-Way gates
can be submitted as Special Circumstance applications. Examples of when these may be needed include OBLISERVE for
special duty, decommissioning or homeport shift.
The C-Way 3-2-1 Process aligns career decisions with the detailing process. Soft End of Active/Reserve Obligated Service
(SEAOS/SEOS)/End of Active/Reserve Obligated Service (EAOS/EOS) applications are created by C-Way at the 18 month
from S/EAOS/EOS mark and must be submitted by the Command Career Counselor at the 16 month mark. This provides
time for the Career Counselor to validate the Sailor's information and to ascertain the Sailors career intentions. The first C-
Way review gate occurs from 16 to 13 months from S/EAOS/EOS with career choice options of in-rate, conversion, and
Selected Reserve. The second review gate occurs from 12 to 9 months from S/EAOS/EOS with career choice options of
conversion and Selected Reserve. From 8 months to 4 months to S/EAOS/EOS the Sailor can only choose Selected
Reserve affiliation.
Monthly reenlistment quotas are limited and must be reserved for our best and brightest Sailors who desire to Stay Navy.
Sailors must choose one of the following based on their desires and qualifications:
Reenlist-in-Rate,
Reenlist-in-rate, Willing to Convert
Convert only
AC to AC or TAR to TAR
RC to AC/TAR
RC to RC
AC/TAR to CIP (Intermission)
AC/TAR to Tour w/ Industry
SELRES option
Canvasser Recruiter
Intend to separate
Not eligible

In February 2014, C-Way delivered auto-approval capabilities to provide reenlistment decisions on S/EAOS/EOS applications
more quickly for eligible ratings. This changed the monthly processing of reenlistment applications as described below.
If you are in an, "open" rating or a "balanced" rating in an undermanned year group or an E6, you are eligible for
reenlistment, and your application is submitted with correct data it will be auto-approved and returned immediately, and you
can reenlist.
If you are in a "competitive" rating or a balanced rating but not an undermanned year group, then your application will be
processed through the monthly Rack and Stack process. Applications submitted in one month are processed in Rack and
Stack the following month.
For Nuclear ratings, all applications are reviewed by enlisted community managers on an ongoing basis throughout the
processing month.
If required data is missing (evaluations, Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) data, security clearance etc.) the application
will be denied with a note to your career counselor regarding what needs to be fixed. It is critical the Command Career
Counselor reviews these notes to ensure Sailors are not disadvantaged in their opportunities for retention.
Upon completion of the monthly process, Career Waypoints results will be available to command users via the Monthly
report section of the Career Waypoint system.
For additional guidance, see MILPERSMAN 1160-140, NAVADMIN 231/17, and your Career Counselor

 Courses with Recommended Reserve Points:
Commander Navy Reserve Forces (CNRF) N7 determines the number of reserve points awarded for completion of a course

VOLUNTARY EDUCATION

Note: Prior to considering any pursuit of off duty education or program enrollment contact the Navy College Virtual
Education Center (NCVEC) or visit your Overseas Navy College Office.

You must complete the Tuition Assistance Training before your first course will be approved.

Complete the online courses at the Navy College Website: [Link]

How do I get started?

You already have. All your training up to this point is part of your Electrician's Mate Roadmap. Now that you have made the
first steps you will need to sit down and formulate a plan. This plan will work best if you start out discussing your options with your
Leading Chief Petty Officer, Leading Petty Officer, Mentor, or Career Counselor. They will help you understand all of the basics.
Then your next step is to contact the Navy College Virtual Education Center or visit your Overseas Navy College Office. Then
your counselors will be able to help you formalize your plan and make sure that it makes sense for both you and the Navy. To aid
you in your conversation with these professionals, here are a few questions that you may want to ask.

What credits do you have? What non-college courses have you taken? Where do you want to go? What field of study, or what
kind of degree? What program will help me get there: Traditional or Online? What are my next steps: Transfer credits, take
exams, have experience evaluated, or sign up for new courses?

 GENERAL INFORMATION ON VOLUNTARY EDUCATION

The Navy College Program & Web Page:

The Navy College Program (NCP) provides opportunities to Sailors to earn college degrees by providing
academic credit for Navy training, work experience, and off-duty education. The NCP mission is to enable
Sailors to obtain a college degree while on active duty. In support of the four R's - Recruiting, Readiness,
Retention, and Respect - the NCP signifies Navy's commitment to education by improving enlistment
appeal; demonstrating Navy service and achieving a college degree are compatible; helping Sailors apply
themselves to new situations and challenges and better preparing them for advancement; building up
Sailors' self-image; and producing higher quality Sailors.
More information is available online at: [Link]

Tuition Assistance (TA):

OPNAVINST 1560.9B provides updated TA policy as of 28 December 2023: TA provides funds for eligible
active-duty personnel to attend approved educational institutions on an off-duty basis to earn a high school
diploma, vocational/technical certificate, or college degree. TA pays for tuition. TA will pay for the following
amount per career: 120 semester hours, or 180-quarter hours or 1800 clock hours or a combination of
semester, quarter and clock hours. TA will pay the following amounts per fiscal year: 18 semester hours, not
to exceed $250/credit for semester hours or 27-quarter hours not-to-exceed $166.67/credit for quarter
hours or, 1800 clock hours not-to-exceed $16.67/clock hours or a combination of semester, quarter and
clock hours.

More information is available online at: [Link]

United States Naval Community College (USNCC)

The U.S. Naval Community College works with active-duty enlisted Sailors to apply credits earned from
military training and prior education toward their associate degree. The USNCC provides a five-course
Naval Studies Certificate that counts as 15 of the 60 credits required for associate degrees. The USNCC
program is separate from tuition assistance and voluntary education programs, which means the lifetime
limit on TA/VOLED credits for service members can be applied toward a bachelor and/or master’s
degree. This helps set active-duty enlisted Sailors on a path of lifelong learning.

More information is available online at: [Link]

Joint Service Transcripts (JST)

JSTs are official military transcripts which are used by colleges to validate your actual credited training.
Every Sailor has a transcript already and access to it is free.
More information is available online at: [Link]

The American Council on Education (ACE)

ACE has reviewed every course listed in the OCCUPATIONAL Roadmap and determined what type of
collegiate level credit is recommended. The ACE identifier, listed with each course, is a source to validate
the information and to check for changes as they occur.
Updates can be found at [Link]
Transcripts/[Link].

Vocational Certificates
Vocational Certificates are available from most community colleges. Most of your military training can be
counted toward their degree programs, but they will still require residency credits and approximately 40-75
credit hours. These certificates can be as valuable as the apprenticeship program in the civilian work
force.

College credits by Testing CLEP, DSST

Testing can replace the requirement to attend most of the college courses listed in the Occupational
Roadmap. Base Education Centers offer CLEP and DSST exams for active duty military at no cost. They
also offer a comprehensive list of "credit-by-exam" tests. Additionally, many of the tests have study guides
available. These tests are available at the base education center or through the base library system. For
specific testing locations visit the DANTES website.

College Entrance Exams Testing ACT, SAT

The ACT and SAT are both standardized tests that help colleges evaluate candidates. Many colleges
require that students submit test results as part of the admission application process. Since Sailors are
considered transfer students, these tests are not generally required for admission. However, some Sailors
must take the tests to enter specific military programs.

SAMPLE DEGREE PLAN
 NAVY ENLISTED LEADER DEVELOPMENT (ELD) PROGRAM

ELD describes all aspects of enlisted leadership skills training, character development, decision
making, self-awareness and ethics. It occurs when a member participates in leader development
activities, formal education, reading or viewing leadership-related material, discussing leadership
issues, observing leaders in action, and performing as a leader. Effective leader development
includes both formal training and self-directed study and reflection. Navy leaders progress along the
general paths shown in the graphic below. Our Navy will produce leaders and teams who learn
rapidly, make high-quality decisions, and control the high end of maritime conflict.
