CAREER ROADMAP
Seaman Recruit to Master Chief Roadmap
The educational roadmap below will assist Sailors in the Operations Specialist community through the process of pursuingprofessional development and advanced education using various military and civilian resources e.g. PQS program; JST JointService Transcript; E-Learning; Navy College Network; etc. Successful leadership is the key to military readiness and will alwaysrequire a high degree of technical skill, professional knowledge, and intellectual development.
What is a Career Roadmap for Operations Specialist?
Operations Specialist roadmaps are just what the name implies - a roadmap through the Enlisted Learning and DevelopmentContinuum from Seaman Recruit through Master Chief. The principal focus is to standardize a program Navy wide by featuringthe existing skills necessary to be successful in the Navy. The ultimate goal of a roadmap is to produce a functional andcompetent 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 foundationof 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 youprogress 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 Operations Specialist roadmap includes the four areas encompassed by the Continuum in Professional MilitaryEducation to include; Navy Professional Military Education (NPME), Joint Professional Military Education (JPME), Leadershipand Advanced Education.
Some training and education is mandatory (Recruit Training, OS School at Great Lakes, E-Learning, etc.). Some may bedirected 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, SeniorEnlisted Advisor, Leading Chief Petty Officer, Leading Petty Officer and Command Career Counselor, and to make use of yourNavy College Virtual Education Center (VEC) or OCONUS Education Office's vast resources. All are uniquely qualified to helpyou along the way.

The Career Waypoints system automatically generates most of the applications needed by Sailors. Applications must besubmitted no later than 16 months prior to expiration of active/reserve obligated service (EAOS/EOS) or as extended(SEAOS/SEOS).

applications for Sailors 18 months prior to either timeframe. Applications required outside of the established C-Way gatescan be submitted as Special Circumstance applications. Examples of when these may be needed include OBLISERVE forspecial 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 monthfrom S/EAOS/EOS mark and must be submitted by the Command Career Counselor at the 16 month mark. This providestime 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, andSelected Reserve. The second review gate occurs from 12 to 9 months from S/EAOS/EOS with career choice options ofconversion and Selected Reserve. From 8 months to 4 months to S/EAOS/EOS the Sailor can only choose SelectedReserve 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

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 applicationsmore 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 forreenlistment, and your application is submitted with correct data it will be auto-approved and returned immediately, and youcan reenlist.
If you are in a "competitive" rating or a balanced rating but not an undermanned year group, then your application will beprocessed through the monthly Rack and Stack process. Applications submitted in one month are processed in Rack andStack the following month.
For Nuclear ratings, all applications are reviewed by enlisted community managers on an ongoing basis throughout theprocessing month.
If required data is missing (evaluations, Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) data, security clearance etc.) the applicationwill be denied with a note to your career counselor regarding what needs to be fixed. It is critical the Command CareerCounselor 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 Monthlyreport 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 willalso help us become better Sailors, citizens, and most importantly, leaders. This list is not intended to limit professional readingor 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 FastLearning at Every Level; Strengthening Our Navy Team for the Future; and Expanding and Strengthening our Network ofPartners. 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 MaritimeSuperiority is included in addition to a section of books - Fundamentals for the Naval Professional - that contains canonicalbooks about warfighting, diplomacy, and strategy. Many books on both lists are available as e-books through the Navy GeneralLibrary Program.
The entire list of over 140 book summaries and additional information is available at https://www.navy.mil/ah_online/cno-readingprogram/azlist.html

RECORD REVIEW CHECKLIST
Review your Official Record to see what documentation, qualifications, etc. may be missing or requiring an update. This is agreat opportunity to meet with your Mentor, Leading Petty Officer or Leading Chief Petty Officer to understand the importance ofkeeping 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 OMPFoption on the BOL main menu page. This is the preferred method of obtaining OMPF information to eliminate theunnecessary 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 yourrecord 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 makecorrections 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" informationabout maintaining a safe and healthful workplace.
