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.

Training and Development Specialists

Directing the ship’s acoustic analysis training and qualification program transfers directly to coordinating workplace training and employee skill development.

How to prepare: Build a non-sensitive workplace-training sample with learning objectives, a short presentation, a learner guide, and a skill assessment.

What the civilian work involves
  • Obtain, organize, or develop training procedure manuals, guides, or course materials, such as handouts or visual materials.
  • Offer specific training programs to help workers maintain or improve job skills.
  • Assess training needs through surveys, interviews with employees, focus groups, or consultation with managers, instructors, or customer representatives.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Microsoft PowerPoint
