Help
Your best source of
information on how to achieve your career goals is your squadron's
Professional Development Officer. Much information is online, so you
need to be comfortable accessing the Internet. Many
tests are found online as well. Additionally, your Group or Wing Commanders are excellent sources of information and guidance.
How To Do It
The best way to start
in a Command Track is to read the regulations. Once familiar with
them, work in several different staff positions
over a period of several years, so as to develop a broad understanding of staff function. Make your interest for
command known to your present commander and offer to work as a vice or deputy commander. Offer to serve as a commander,
and apply for the job when a position becomes available. |
