Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Preventive Medicine Physicians

Planning, directing, and supervising Army occupational health programs transfers directly to the occupational medicine program responsibilities within preventive medicine.

How to prepare: Ask the target state's medical board to review your licensure status and prospective employers to assess your medical education and specialty training for occupational medicine credentialing. All states require physician licensure, with requirements varying by state.

What the civilian work involves
  • Direct or manage prevention programs in specialty areas such as aerospace, occupational, infectious disease, and environmental medicine.
  • Supervise or coordinate the work of physicians, nurses, statisticians, or other professional staff members.
