3 This CAREER FIELD EDUCATION and TRAINING plan (CFETP) is a comprehensive EDUCATION and TRAINING document that identifies life-cycle EDUCATION / TRAINING requirements, TRAINING support resources, and minimum core task requirements for this specialty. The CFETP will provide personnel a clear CAREER path to success and will instill rigor in all aspects of CAREER FIELD TRAINING . NOTE: Civilians occupying associated positions will use Part II to support duty position qualification TRAINING . 2. The CFETP consists of two parts; both parts of the plan are used by supervisors to plan , manage, and control TRAINING within the CAREER FIELD . Part I provides information necessary for overall management of the specialty. Section A. explains how everyone will use the plan ; Section B identifies CAREER FIELD progression information, duties and responsibilities, TRAINING strategies, and CAREER FIELD path; Section C associates each level with specialty qualifications (knowledge, EDUCATION , TRAINING , and other); Section D indicates resource constraints.

4 Some examples are funds, manpower, equipment, facilities; Section E. identifies transition TRAINING guide requirements for SSgt through MSgt. Part II includes the following: Section A identifies the Specialty TRAINING Standard (STS). and includes duties, tasks, technical references to support TRAINING , Air EDUCATION and TRAINING Command (AETC) conducted TRAINING , wartime course, core task, and correspondence course requirements; Section B is reserved in this CFETP; Section C identifies available support materials. An example is a Qualification TRAINING Package (QTPs which may be developed to support proficiency TRAINING ). These packages are identified in the Air Force Master Catalog;. Section D identifies a TRAINING course index supervisors can use to determine resources available to support TRAINING . Included here are both mandatory and optional courses; Section E identifies MAJCOM unique TRAINING requirements supervisors can use to determine additional TRAINING required for the associated qualification needs.

5 3. Guidance provided in the CFETP will ensure individuals in this specialty receive effective and efficient TRAINING at the appropriate point in their careers. This plan will enable us to train today's work force for tomorrow's jobs. At unit level, supervisors and trainers will use Part II to identify, plan , and conduct TRAINING commensurate with the overall goals of this plan . 1. ATTACHMENT 2, STS 2T031/2T051/2T071.
