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.

Network and Computer Systems Administrators

ALIMS experience administering Linux, Windows Server, virtualized systems, and tactical networks directly overlaps with civilian infrastructure administration and disaster recovery.

How to prepare: Build a small Linux and Windows Server lab, then document a backup restoration test and the steps used to recover service.

What the civilian work involves
  • Maintain and administer computer networks and related computing environments, including computer hardware, systems software, applications software, and all configurations.
  • Perform data backups and disaster recovery operations.
  • Diagnose, troubleshoot, and resolve hardware, software, or other network and system problems, and replace defective components when necessary.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Linux
  • Bash
  • Microsoft Active Directory

Computer Network Support Specialists

Deploying and maintaining tactical LANs and serving as the aviation logistics IT point of contact transfers directly to network troubleshooting and support.

How to prepare: Create a network troubleshooting portfolio using a lab, recording symptoms, diagnostic tests, corrective actions, and verification for several connectivity failures.

What the civilian work involves
  • Configure security settings or access permissions for groups or individuals.
  • Identify the causes of networking problems, using diagnostic testing software and equipment.
  • Document network support activities.
