The Air Force is working to provide employees at the GS
13-15 levels with career development plan forms, which
allow civilians to list their short- and long-term
development goals and provide them an opportunity to
indicate their personal desires for experience, training,
educational opportunities. In return, the plans feedback
on how their personal desires fit in with Air Force goals
and requirements.
The forms are reviewed up the chain of command and are
used in decisions such as recommendations for the best
next type of experience, education or training opportunity
for each employee.
Civil engineering, financial management, contracting,
program management, scientist and engineer, and personnel
civilian career fields have already begun using CDPs and
by the end of the year, all GS 13-15s career fields will
be using the CDP, the Air Force said.
