The changing Command, Control, Communications, Computer, and Intelligence (C4I) andExpeditionary Aerospace Forces (EAF) environments require vision, preparation, and attention to ensurepeople have the right skills and tools to deliver the C4I capabilities and the support required by the warfighter in meeting the Air Force mission of today and the vision of the future. Declining resources,expanding diversity of mission, and ever-changing technologies in the Air Force are impacting theavailability of our most valuable resource--people. These factors will continue to exist in the future,making it essential for the work force to be effectively and efficiently trained to perform duties within eachskill level of an Air Force Specialty (AFS). To meet the challenges of tomorrow, the Air Force must placea greater emphasis on career field training. This Communications-Computer Systems Operations CareerField Education and Training Plan (CFETP) is a comprehensive core training document that identifies life-cycle training/education requirements, support resources, and minimum core task requirements for the3C0X1 specialty. The plan is a "training road map" for the career field. It provides personnel a clearcareer path to success and makes career field training identifiable, measurable, and budget defensible.

2. The CFETP documents the career field training program and consists of two parts. Management usesboth parts to plan, manage, and control training within the career field.

2.1. Part I, Section A provides the information necessary for overall management of training in the careerfield. It contains administrative details and explains the purpose and use of the CFETP. Section Bprovides a description of the specialty, suggests career field progression, provides career fieldinformation, documents training decisions, defines each skill level, and identifies MAJCOM continuationtraining options. Section C specifies qualification requirements for upgrade/progression in eachsubsequent skill level in the career field. It also identifies sources of training other than those provided byAir Education and Training Command (AETC). Section D identifies known resource constraints. SectionE identifies transition training requirements.

2.2. Part II, Section A identifies the Specialty Training Standard (STS) and includes duties, tasks,technical references, Air Education and Training Command (AETC) conducted training, core tasks, andcorrespondence course requirements. Section B contains the course objective list/training standardsupervisors use to determine if airmen satisfied training requirements. Section C contains supportmaterial relevant across the specialty including Air Force Job Qualification Standards/Air ForceQualification Training Packages (AFJQS/AFQTP). Section D lists all mandatory Air Force in-residence,field, Air Force Institute for Advanced Distributed Learning (AFIADL), and exportable courses used tosupport training for this specialty. Section E is used to identify MAJCOM unique requirements.Supervisors and trainers at the unit level use Part I, Section C, and Part II of the CFETP to identify, plan,and conduct unit level training commensurate with the overall goals of this plan.

3. Use of the guidance provided in this CFETP ensures individuals in this career field receive effectiveand efficient training at the appropriate points in their careers. This plan enables the Air Force to traintoday's work force for tomorrow's jobs.

Section A - General Information

1. Purpose of the CFETP. This CFETP provides the information necessary for career field managers,training management, supervisors, and trainers to plan, develop, manage, and conduct an effective andefficient career field training program. The plan outlines the training that individuals in AFSC 3C0X1should receive in order to develop and progress throughout their careers. For purpose of this plan,training is divided into: initial skills, upgrade, qualification, and continuation training. Initial skills trainingis the AFS specific training an individual receives upon entering into the AFSC. This training is providedby the 336 Training Squadron (TRS) at Keesler AFB, MS. Upgrade training identifies the mandatorycourses, task qualification requirements, and Career Development Course (CDC) completion required foraward of the 5-, 7-, or 9-skill level. Qualification training is actual hands-on task performance trainingdesigned to qualify an airman in a specific duty position. This training program occurs both during andafter the upgrade training process. It is designed to provide the performance skills/knowledge trainingrequired to do the job. Continuation training is additional training provided to 3-, 5-, 7-, and 9-levelpersonnel to increase their skills and knowledge beyond the minimum required for upgrade. The CFETPhas several purposes, some of which are:

1.1. Serves as a management tool to plan, develop, manage, and conduct a career field trainingprogram. Also, ensures that established training is provided at the appropriate point in an individual'scareer.

1.2. Identifies task and knowledge training requirements for each skill level in the specialty andrecommends training throughout each phase of an individual's career.

1.3. Lists training courses available in the specialty, identifies sources of the training, and provides thetraining medium.

1.4. Identifies major resource constraints that impact implementation of the desired career field trainingprogram.

2. Use of the CFETP. The CFETP is maintained by the 3CXXX Air Force Career Field Manager(AFCFM), HQ USAF/SCXFD. MAJCOM Functional Managers and AETC review the plan annually toensure currency and accuracy and forward recommended changes to the AFCFM. Using the list ofcourses in Part II, they determine whether duplicate training exists and take steps to eliminate/preventduplicate efforts. Career field training managers at all levels use the plan to ensure a comprehensive andcohesive training program is available for each individual in the career ladder.

2.1. AETC training personnel develop/revise formal resident and exportable training based uponrequirements established by the users and documented in the STS. They also develop procurement andacquisition strategies for obtaining resources needed to provide the identified training.

2.2. MAJCOM Functional Managers ensure their training programs complement the CFETP mandatoryinitial skill and upgrade requirements. They also identify the needed AFJQSs/AFQTPs to documentunique upgrade and continuation training requirements. Requirements are satisfied through OJT,resident training, contract training, or exportable courseware/courses. MAJCOM developed training tosupport this AFSC must be identified for inclusion into this plan.

2.3. 81 TRSS Qualification Training Flight (Q-Flight) personnel develop AFJQSs/AFQTPs based onrequests submitted by the MAJCOMs and according to the priorities assigned by the Communications-Computer Systems Training Advisory Group (CTAG).

2.4. Unit level training managers and supervisors manage and control progression through the careerfield by ensuring individuals complete the mandatory training requirements for upgrade specified in thisplan and supplemented by their MAJCOM. The list of courses in Part II is used as a reference forplanning continuation or career enhancement training.

6. Training Decisions. This CFETP was developed to encapsulate an entire spectrum of trainingrequirements for the Communications-Computer Systems Operations career field, using a building blockapproach (simple to complex). Included in this spectrum was the strategy of when, where, and how tomeet the training requirements. The strategy must be apparent and affordable to reduce duplication oftraining and eliminate a disjointed approach to training. The following training decisions were made bymembers of the 24-27 July 2000 Utilization and Training Workshop.

6.1. Increased emphasis was placed on Windows NT and UNIX in the initial skills course and 5-levelCDCs. Training references were updated. The areas covering mainframe computers andtelecommunication centers were reduced while electronic principles and other tasks performed by C-CSControl (3C2X1) AFSC were removed. Network management areas were increased and the NetworkControl Center concept was added.

6.1.1. Initial Skills. The initial skills course and 5-level CDC were expanded to provide training needed toprepare graduates to meet requirements of the revised C-CS Operations specialty.

6.1.2. Five-Level Upgrade Requirements. The mid-range CDC course provides in-depth and carefullydeveloped lessons on military C-CS operations at all levels. This course picks up from the 3-levelresident course and delivers strong doses of specialty instruction across all the functional areas of theC-CS Operations specialty.

6.1.3. Seven-Level Upgrade Training Requirements. Requirement for completion of 7-level CDCs wasdeleted. Significant changes were made to the 7-level course to include new equipment, updatedsoftware, and hands-on exposure with troubleshooting common network problems.

6.2. Proficiency Training. This training is job qualification for an assigned duty position. Additionalqualification training becomes necessary when personnel transfer to another duty position, the unitmission changes, a new personnel program comes on board, or any time changes in techniques orprocedures occur.

6.2.1. 81 TRSS (Q-Flight) develops AFJQSs/AFQTPs to support tasks relating to communications-electronics and communications-computer systems, functions, and duties. Completion ofAFJQSs/AFQTPs is mandatory by duty position for personnel in upgrade or qualification training.Personnel assigned to a Network Control Center (NCC) performing Network Management duties woulduse AFJQS 3CXXX-200C.

6.2.2. Licensing and Certification Training. AFI 33-115 Vol 2, Licensing Network Users and CertifyingNetwork Professionals, defines policy and procedures for training and certifying Air Force networkprofessionals who access the Air Force (.af.mil) domain. Compliance with this AFI meets DoD initiative totrain and certify those network professionals who actively manage, configure, and control the network, toa consistent verifiable skill level ensuring the DoD Information Assurance (IA) posture is uncompromised.The objective of the network certification program is to qualify network personnel for position certificationduring peacetime and combat operations in support of the EAF. Network personnel perform dailynetwork management (NM), control, and administration of information flow within the functional areas aswell as within the Network Control Center (NCC). Certification is achieved through a combination ofAFJQSs, in-residence courses, supervised on-the-job training (OJT), and Air Force provided interactivecomputer based training (CBT).

11

6.2.3. Position Certification Guide for Network Professionals. The network certification program trains allnetwork professionals to standardized criteria. Network professionals are military and DoD civilians whowork in the following functional areas: Help Desk Services, Network Administration, NetworkManagement, Information Protection (IP), Workgroup Management (WM), and Functional SystemAdministration (FSA). This program ensures network professionals maintain a demonstrable knowledgelevel and a set of core skills across the Air Force. Supervisors determine the network professional crewposition based on the trainee's duties. Training required for each crew position is identified in AFJQS3CXXX-200C, Position Certification for Network Professionals. This AFJQS outlines knowledge trainingand performance tasks network professionals must complete to receive certification for each crewposition. The tasks listed are the minimum required for Network Certification. MAJCOMs and bases mayadd unique training requirements to ensure position certification is comprehensive and meets missionneeds. The following table lists the various crew positions for base level Network Operations andSecurity Center (NOSC) network professionals.

PART II

Section A - Specialty Training Standard

1. Implementation. This STS will be used for technical training provided by AETC for the 3-level classbeginning 20010613 and graduating 20010911 and the 7-level class beginning 20010709 and graduating20010719.

2. Purpose. As prescribed in AFI 36-2201, this STS:

2.1. Lists in column 1 (Task, Knowledge, and Technical Reference) the most common tasks, knowledge,and technical references (TR) necessary for airman to perform duties in the 3-, 5-, and 7-skill level.Wartime tasks are identified by a pound sign (#) preceding the task number. Column 2 (Core Tasks)identifies, by asterisk (*), specialty-wide training requirements. NOTE: Core tasks are minimum tasktraining requirements for upgrade to the 5-skill level.

2.2. Provides certification for OJT. Column 3 is used to record completion of tasks and knowledgetraining requirements. Use automated training management systems to document technicianqualifications, if available. Task certification must show a certification/completion date. (As a minimum,use the following column designators: Stop Date, Certifier Initials).

2.3. Shows formal training and correspondence course requirements. Column 4 shows the proficiency tobe demonstrated on the job by the graduate as a result of training on the task/knowledge and the careerknowledge provided by the correspondence course. See the AFIADL Catalog maintained athttp://www.maxwell.af.mil/au/afiadl for current CDC listings.

2.4. Qualitative Requirements. Attachment 1 contains the proficiency code key used to indicate the levelof training and knowledge provided by resident training and career development courses.

2.5. Becomes a job qualification standard (JQS) for on-the-job training when placed in AF Form 623,On-the-Job Training Record, and used according to AFI 36-2201. When used as a JQS, the followingrequirements apply:

2.5.1. Training Documentation. Document and certify completion of training. Identify duty positionrequirements by circling the subparagraph number next to the task statement. Complete the followingcolumns in Part II of the CFETP:

2.5.1.1. Initial Certification. Evaluate qualifications and when verified, certify using:

2.5.1.1.1. Core/Critical Tasks. Start date, stop date, trainee’s initials, trainer’s initials, and certifier’sinitials.

2.5.1.1.2. Non-Core/Non-Critical Tasks. Start date, stop date, trainee’s initials, and trainer’s initials.

2.5.1.2. Transcribing from Old Document to CFETP. Evaluate current qualifications and when verifiedrecertify using:

2.5.1.2.1. Tasks Previously Certified and Required in Current Duty Position (Core/Critical Tasks).Current date as stop date, trainee’s initials, and certifier’s initials.

2.5.1.2.2. Tasks Previously Certified and Required in Current Duty Position (Non-Core/Non-CriticalTasks). Current date as stop date, trainee’s initials, and trainer’s initials.

http://www.maxwell.af.mil/au/afiadl

21

2.5.1.2.3. Tasks Previously Certified but Not Required in Current Duty Position. Carry forward only theprevious completion date of certification (not the initials of another person). If and when transcribed tasksbecome duty position requirements, recertify using standard certification procedures.2.5.1.2.4. The person whose initials appear in the trainer or certifier block during the transcriptionprocess must meet the requirements of their prescribed role.

2.5.1.2.5. Give the member the old CFETP upon completion of transcription.

2.5.1.3. Documenting Career Knowledge. When a CDC is not available: the supervisor identifies STStraining references the trainee requires for career knowledge and ensures, as a minimum, that traineescover the mandatory items in AFMAN 36-2108. For two time CDC course exam failures, supervisorsidentify all STS items corresponding to the areas covered by the CDC. The trainee completes study ofthe STS references, undergoes evaluation by the task certifier, and receives certification on the STS.NOTE: Career knowledge must be documented prior to submitting a CDC waiver.

2.5.1.4. Decertification and Recertification. When an airman is found to be unqualified on a taskpreviously certified, the supervisor lines through the previous certification or deletes the previouscertification when using an automated system. Appropriate remarks are entered on the AF Form 623A,On-the-Job Training Record Continuation Sheet, as to the reason for decertification. The individual isrecertified using the normal certification process.

2.5.2. Training Standard. Tasks are trained and qualified to the go/no go level. Go means the individualcan perform the task without assistance and meet local demands for accuracy, timeliness, and correctuse of procedures.

2.6. Is a guide for development of promotion tests used in the Weighted Airman Promotion System(WAPS). Specialty Knowledge Tests (SKT) are developed at the USAF Occupational MeasurementSquadron by senior NCOs with extensive practical experience in their career fields. The tests sampleknowledge of STS subject matter areas judged by test development team members as most appropriatefor promotion to higher grades. Questions are based upon study references listed in the WAPS catalog.Individual responsibilities are listed in chapter 1 of AFI 36-2605, Air Force Military Personnel TestingSystem. WAPS is not applicable to the Air National Guard or Air Reserve Forces.

3. Recommendations. Comments and recommendations are invited concerning the quality of AETCtraining. A Customer Service Information Line (CSIL) has been installed for the supervisors'convenience. For a quick response to concerns, call our CSIL at DSN 597-4566, fax us at DSN597-3790, or e-mail us at [email protected].

Section B - Course Objective List

4. Measurement. Each objective is indicated as follows: W indicates task or subject knowledge which ismeasured using a written test, PC indicates required task performance which is measured with aperformance progress check, and PC/W indicates separate measurement of both knowledge andperformance elements using a written test and a progress check.

5. Standard. The standard is 70% on written examinations. Standards for performance measurementare indicated in the objective and delineated on the individual progress checklist. Instructor assistance isprovided as needed during the progress check, and students may be required to repeat all or part of thebehavior until satisfactory performance is attained.

6. Proficiency Level. Most task performance is taught to the “2b” proficiency level which means thestudent can do most parts of the task, but does need assistance on the hardest parts of the task (partiallyproficient). The student can also determine step by step procedures for doing the task.

7. Course Objectives. These objectives are listed in the sequence taught by Block of Instruction.Because the communications career field is ever changing, we are providing a website with a "living"course objective list (COL). As changes are made to the courses they will also be made to the website.Use the following link to get started, then navigate to the COL by selecting the 81 TRW, 81 TRG, andfinally the 336 TRS to locate the COL for the C-CS Operations courses. https://wwwmil.keesler.af.mil/.
