Frequently asked questions

How many Air Force AFSC codes are there?

This directory lists 253 Air Force AFSC codes across 9 career areas. Being listed here does not establish current service use. Codes confirmed historical are kept out of this list and remain in the historical archive with documented changes and successor links where verified.

What is an AFSC?

AFSC stands for Air Force Specialty Code, a five character code like 1D7X4. The fourth character is the skill level, written as X when referring to the specialty as a whole and as 1, 3, 5, or 7 on individual orders. Some specialties add a suffix letter, called a shred, for a narrower track.

Where does this AFSC data come from?

Codes and titles follow the Department of the Air Force Enlisted and Officer Classification Directories (DAFECD and DAFOCD) and are cross-checked against AF COOL, the Air Force credentialing program.
