CAREER ROADMAP
Fireman Recruit to Master Chief Roadmap

The educational roadmap below will assist Sailors in the Damage Controlman 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 Damage Controlman?

Damage Controlman 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 Damage Controlman 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, Damage Control 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.

RECORD REVIEW CHECKLIST
Review your Official Record to see what documentation, qualifications, etc. may be missing or requiring an update. This is a
great opportunity to meet with your Mentor, Leading Petty Officer or Leading Chief Petty Officer to understand the importance of
keeping your record up-to-date. Check the following three major sections to verify your Official Record:
a. BUPERS Online: BUPERS Online (https://www.bol.navy.mil) is your main tool to ensure your record is up to date and
helps you to be proactive in making the most of your promotion opportunity. You should review your:
1. Official Military Personnel File (OMPF): All active duty and reserve personnel having a BOL account, a CAC (with
appropriate certificates) and a CAC-enabled computer can now view their OMPF online by selecting the OMPF
option on the BOL main menu page. This is the preferred method of obtaining OMPF information to eliminate the
unnecessary time-lags caused by waiting days or weeks to receive a requested CD ROM.
2. If Deployed: Click on "Request Record on CD" to order your Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). This must be
accomplished four to six months before a board convenes, which will allow time for delivery and updating of your
record if required.
3. Check your Performance Summary Record (PSR) and Enlisted Summary Record (ESR) on
https://www.bol.navy.mil, click on the "ODC, OSR, PSR, ESR" link.
b. Electronic Service Record (ESR) Self-Service ESR: This can be viewed at https://nsips.nmci.navy.mil or on the Navy
Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) ESR server onboard ship.
c. Electronic Training Jacket (ETJ): Log in to My Navy Portal (MNP) and review your entire ETJ making sure that each
section is correct. If not, clicking on "Data Problems" at the bottom of each page which will guide you on how to make
corrections or updates.
d. US Navy Awards website: Log in to https://awards.navy.mil/ to review any awards you may qualify for but were unaware
of. Note that this website is only available from a CAC enabled, NMCI machine.
e. Physical Readiness Information Management System (PRIMS): To log in to PRIMS, first log in to BUPERS Online at
https://www.bol.navy.mil. Then look half way down the page for the PRIMS login at https://www.bol.navy.mil/bam/.
f. EOSH: The Federal Agency Employee Occupational Safety and Health (EOSH) Toolkit is available at
https://www.osha.gov/dep/fap/eosh_toolkit.html. It provides a one-stop-shop website that includes "just in time" information
about maintaining a safe and healthful workplace.

community health, but also provides qualified Sailors with an opportunity to resume or begin a career in the AC/FTS. This
component change refers to a permanent transfer from RC2AC/FTS. This voluntary program enables qualified, eligible enlisted
RC Sailors to submit applications in Career Waypoints (C-WAY) based on available quotas published on the Bureau of Naval
Personnel (BUPERS), Enlisted Community Manager (BUPERS-32) Web page at: https://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-

The Career Intermission Program allows Officers and Enlisted Sailors to transfer out of the active component (AC/FTS) and into
the Individual Ready Reserve for a period of one to three years to pursue personal or professional obligations outside the Navy,
while providing a means for their seamless return to active duty.

AC/FTS to Secretary of the Navy Tours with Industry

This program provides a venue for exceptional Sailors to experience innovative business practices. Navy fellows are fully
immersed in company practices and will be actively engaged in projects and company operations. Past fellows were assigned
to companies including VMware, Qualcomm, Apple, Incorporation, Boeing, Tesla, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, GE Digital,
Amazon, FedEx, Northrup Grumman, Space X, LinkedIn and USAA.

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:
https://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-npc/career/reservepersonnelmgmt/definiterecall/Pages/CANRECRecall.aspx.
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
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 FTS to FTS
RC to AC/FTS
RC to RC
AC/FTS to CIP (Intermission)
AC/FTS 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
Or call My Navy Call Center: (833) 330-MNCC or (901) 874-MNCC; or [email protected]

Reading, discussing, and understanding the ideas found in the CNO PRP will not only improve our critical thinking skills, but will
also help us become better Sailors, citizens, and most importantly, leaders. This list is not intended to limit professional reading
or learning in any way, but merely to provide easy access to a few of the many titles that will benefit our service.
The Chief of Naval Operations' tenets and Lines of Effort: Strengthening Naval Power at and from the Sea; Achieving Fast
Learning at Every Level; Strengthening Our Navy Team for the Future; and Expanding and Strengthening our Network of
Partners. These LOEs have themes common to all Sailors - Integrity, Accountability, Initiative, and Toughness.
The books are organized by the Lines of Effort, but there are several other categories as well. A Design for Maintaining Maritime
Superiority is included in addition to a section of books - Fundamentals for the Naval Professional - that contains canonical
books about warfighting, diplomacy, and strategy. Many books on both lists are available as e-books through the Navy General
Library Program.
The entire list of over 140 book summaries and additional information is available at https://www.navy.mil/ah_online/cno-

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: http://www.navycollege.navy.mil/
How do I get started?
You already have. All your training up to this point is part of your Damage Controlman 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: https://www.navycollege.navy.mil
Tuition Assistance (TA):

NAVADMIN 114/19 limit changes as of 1 October 2019: 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: 12 semester hours, not to
exceed $250/credit for semester hours or 18-quarter hours not-to-exceed $166.67/credit for quarter hours or, 180 clock hours
not-to-exceed $16.67/clock hours or a combination of semester, quarter and clock hours.
More information is available online at: https://www.navycollege.navy.mil
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: https://jst.doded.mil/
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 http://www.acenet.edu/news-room/Pages/Military-Guide-Online.aspx.
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.

DANTES: http://www.dantes.doded.mil/examinations/earn-college-credit/earn-college-credit.html
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.
