CAREER FIELD EDUCATION AND TRAINING PLAN
Part I
Preface
1.
This Career Field Education and Training Plan (CFETP) is a comprehensive education and
training document that identifies life-cycle education and 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 the
career field training.
NOTE:
Civilians and additional duty training managers occupying
associated positions may use Part II to support duty position qualification training.
2.
The CFETP consists of two parts. Supervisors will use both parts to plan, manage, and
control training within the specialty.
2.1.
Part I provides information necessary for overall management of the specialty. Section A
explains how to 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, experience, training, and other).
Section D indicates resource constraints (i.e., funds, manpower, equipment, facilities).
Section E identifies transition training plans for the 3F2X1 career field.
2.2.
Part II is utilized to identify, plan, and conduct training commensurate with the overall
goals of this plan. Section A identifies the Specialty Training Standard (STS) and includes
duties, tasks, and technical references to support training, Air Education and Training
Command (AETC) conducted training, core task, and correspondence course requirements.
Section B identifies the course objective list. Section C identifies available support materials.
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 Major Command (MAJCOM) unique training requirements supervisors can use to
determine additional training required for the associated qualification needs.

Section A General Information
1.
Purpose
. This CFETP provides the information necessary for AFCFMs, MAJCOM FMs,
commanders, training managers, supervisors, and trainers to plan, develop, manage, and
conduct an effective and efficient career field training program. The plan outlines the
training individuals in this AFS should receive in order to develop and progress throughout
their career. This plan identifies initial skills, upgrade, qualification, advanced and
proficiency training. The CFETP has several purposessome are:
1.1.
Serves as a management tool to plan, manage, conduct, and evaluate a career field
training program. It is also used to help supervisors identify training, at the appropriate point,
in an individual’s career.
1.2.
Identifies task and knowledge requirements for each skill level in the specialty and
recommends education and training throughout each phase of an individual’s career.
1.3
. Lists training courses available in the specialty, identifies sources of training, and the
training delivery method.
1.4.
Identifies major resource constraints that impact full implementation of the desired career
field training process.
2. Usage.
The plan will be used by MAJCOM FMs, Base Training Managers (BTMs), Base
Functional Managers (BFMs), and supervisors at all levels to ensure comprehensive and
cohesive training programs are available for each individual in the specialty.
2.1.
AETC training personnel will develop or revise formal resident, nonresident, field, and
exportable training based on requirements established by the users and documented in Part II of
the CFETP. They will also work with the AFCFM to develop acquisition strategies for
obtaining resources needed to provide identified training.
2.2.
MAJCOM FMs will ensure their training programs complement the CFETP mandatory
initial, upgrade, and proficiency requirements. OJT, resident training, contract training, or
exportable courses can satisfy identified requirements. MAJCOM-developed training to
support this AFSC must be identified for inclusion into this CFETP.
2.3.
Each individual will complete the mandatory training requirements specified in this
CFETP. The list of courses in Part II will be used as a reference to support training.
3. Coordination and Approval.
The AFCFM is the approval authority. The AFCFM will
initiate an annual review of this document to ensure currency and accuracy. MAJCOM
representatives and AETC training personnel will identify and coordinate on the career field
training requirements.

5. Competencies.
The Air Force defines competencies as an observable, measurable pattern
of knowledge, skills, abilities, behaviors, and other characteristics needed to perform
institutional or occupational functions successfully. The Education and Training community
has rebuilt the entire training platform by using competencies to identify the behaviors that
are needed to be successful on the job. This has been accomplished by identifying and
integrating the 3F2X1, Education and Training, occupational competencies and leveraging
the Air Force’s foundational competencies in a manner that provides all Airmen with
transparent and unbiased pathways towards their own successful development.
5.1. Foundational Competencies. The foundational competencies are a set of accepted and
valued competencies, which enable success across a wide array of DAF missions, roles,
functions, and duties. These competencies are the core of Airmen development and enable
Airmen with tools, pathways, and capabilities to improve their performance in any job, specialty,
or situation. The foundational competencies are grouped into different categories of Developing
Self, Developing Others, Developing Ideas, and Developing Organization. Airmen can go to
MyVector (accessible via AF Portal) to complete a self-assessment, which will have them
evaluate themselves on the 24 Airmen’s foundational competencies or a 360-degree assessment,
where subordinates, peers, and leaders can also provide feedback. The assessment tools will
provide Airmen with immediate feedback on personal strengths and areas for improvement.
Additionally, a personal improvement plan with targeted resources (videos, reading content,
developmental opportunities) are provided for continued self-development.
Figure 1. Foundational Competencies.
10
5.2. Occupational Competencies. Occupational competencies are a set of competencies
required of all Airmen within a specific workforce category. These competencies provide a
framework that describe the technical/functional skills, knowledge, abilities, behaviors and other
characteristics needed to perform that function’s mission successfully.
5.2.1. Occupational Competency Model. A career field’s competencies can be viewed in a
competency model, which is an organized collection of competencies pertinent to the career
field. The occupational competency model provides a framework to effectively assess, maintain,
and monitor the competencies required for mission success for Airmen within the Education and
Training community. The occupational competency model follows a distinct process with
continued involvement from the career field and allows Airmen to see how their task lists, OJT,
formal courses, and other training, education, and experiences are aligned to the career field’s
strategic objectives.
5.2.2. Career fields work with trained competency experts to identify and develop their
competency model, which consists of the competencies, sub-competencies, and definitions.
Occupational competency models will be different for each career field. The model focuses on
integrating not just the technical components, but also leadership, management, combat, joint,
all-domain, and social mastery competencies required for Airmen to succeed in their career field.
Figure 2 provides an example of a competency model for the 3F2X1 career field.

5.2.3. Occupational Competency Rubric. After a model is developed, a team of subject matter
experts begin building competency rubrics, which consists of the competency, a description of
the competency, proficiency levels, and measurable and observable behaviors. The competency
rubrics will help Airmen learn which behaviors are aligned to the career field’s strategic
direction, the professional developmental expectations, and the criteria for success. Figure 3
provides an example of a competency rubric for 3F2X1 career field.

The sub-competency section states the narrower category that
forms part of the competency group.
Note: Some models may only consist of a competency and
not include a sub-competency.

Supporting Competencies
The supporting competencies section are supported-level
competencies that are linked to the success of the sub-
competency. These competencies lend themselves more
toward areas like values, traits, and attitudes. These
competencies were included as part of a larger survey that
went out to the entire AFS; respondents were asked to rate the
top supporting competencies they believe will attribute to
higher successful performance within the sub-competency.

Figure 4b. Competency Rubric Section 2.
Proficiency Levels
The proficiency levels are broken into four parts: basic,
intermediate, advanced, and expert.
Under each proficiency level are predetermined criteria selected
by a group of SMEs from your career field and validated by the
career field. The criteria were used as the basis to develop the
observable behaviors. These criteria provide concrete
parameters for the behaviors, which are consistent but
progressive in nature as a member moves up the scale from basic
to expert.
Some of the criteria (e.g., depth of knowledge, consistency of
application/complexity, and thinking challenge) allows an
individual to become an expert through the experience gained in
a particular job and over a period of time. For example, the
person can quickly move up different proficiency levels while
they are serving as a technician at a flight; they move quickly
because they are exposed to a variety of situations.
While other criteria (e.g., scope, impact, and reach of
influence) requires more of a hierarchical approach to gain the

experience needed to progress through the competency levels.
Moving through the proficiency levels may be difficult to do in
certain jobs. For example, if scope at the expert level requires
job integration with the AF-level, then the individual may have
to be in a position where they can gain that experience (i.e., at
HHQ, Wing, or an organization with far reaching capabilities).
Figure 4c. Competency Section 3.
5.2.5 Another key component within the rubric is the supporting competencies section at the
bottom left-hand corner. These are the top four supporting competencies that can help members
excel and be successful in that particular sub-competency. Some of these supporting
competencies are tied directly to the Airmen’s Foundational Competencies, while others may be
unique to the career field. Having these supporting competencies identified and linked to a career
field’s competency model can cultivate those underlying characteristics needed to succeed on the
job. Leaders, supervisors, trainers, instructors, or mentors can now set members up for greater
success by building these supporting competencies and placing their Airmen in situations where
they can apply those strategies. All these elements come together to ensure we can develop
Airmen who are better prepared, present, future mission-focused, and ready to succeed in any
situation. Additionally, AFH 36-2643, Air Force Mentoring Program, has information on how
competencies can be used when an established mentoring strategy is put into effect to foster and
develop Airmen.
Observable Behaviors
The observable behaviors
are statements of what
can be observed from an
individual manifesting
the competency at the
respective competency
level.
They provide objective
evidence that the
individual possesses the
competency level and
shows what effective
performance looks like.
The behaviors are written
to be specific enough so
they can be observable
and lend themselves
towards measurement.

5.2.6. Competency Development. The intent of moving towards a competency-based system is to
sharpen our Airmen’s tactical expertise, operational competence, strategic vision, and joint
proficiency to lead and execute the full spectrum of USAF missions. This occurs not in a
classroom but on the job by combining education, training, and experiences to provide Airmen
with a better developmental pathway as they move along their careers. Airmen are still required
to complete specific training courses, core tasks, and other training requirements in order to
15
attain a 3-, 5-, and 7-skill levels. Competency development allows Airmen to move beyond the
minimum career field requirements and begin addressing developmental gaps and strengthening
their capabilities. The competency model provides information that enables Education and
Training community members to assess their professional growth and development by
comparing their strengths and weaknesses to the clear and objective behaviors outlined in the
model.

6. Training Decisions. The CFETP has undergone a considerable revision towards building a
competency-based training and development platform for the Education and Training career
field. A significant change has been to shift the focus from task-based training to one that is more
centered on outcomes-based learning. A task is a unit of work activity or operation which forms
a significant part of a duty. These are singular in nature and are usually accomplished in one
continuous action, which also can occur independently of other tasks. Conversely, outcomes are
learning goals that typically consist of a multitude of tasks. These outcomes are actions and
performances that embody and reflect the learner’s competence in using content, information,
ideas, and tools successfully. Focusing on learning outcomes allow organizations, leaders,
supervisors, and trainers to incorporate foundational competencies and underlying characteristics
(values, traits, attitudes) into learning, which is necessary for developing Airmen with the
competencies needed for future challenges. The following decisions were made as a result of
close coordination between HQ AETC, 2AF Technical Training, schoolhouse instructors and
staff, field SMEs, functional managers and the AFCFM. The final training requirements are then
approved by the Career Field Manager.
6.1. A planning meeting/STRT was held from 26-30 September 2022 at Keesler AFB, MS.
Members of the planning meeting/STRT sought to develop the learning outcomes. This was
accomplished by reverse engineering the behaviors found in the Education and Training
occupational competency model and then by asking what does an Airman need to know and do
in order to master a specific behavior. The intent of the learning outcomes is to identify all
factors needed to succeed in attaining the behavior. During the planning meeting, members
decided (approved at STRT portion) to remove the qualitative proficiency code key and use a
behavioral statement coding system for the STS.

As a result, each line item will consist of a verb and the coding system for formal training will
only use P (performance), K (knowledge), and pk (performance-knowledge).
6.2. The CFETP uses a building block approach (simple to complex) to encompass the entire
spectrum of training requirements for the 3F2X1 career field. The spectrum includes a strategy
for when, where, and how to meet the training requirements. The strategy must be apparent and
affordable to reduce duplication of training and eliminate a disjointed approach to training. The
training decisions were made during the STRT held 26-30 September 2022 and utilizing the ISD
process as implemented by 335TRS/UOB during training planning and course development.
6.3. Skill and Career Progression.
Adequate training and timely progression from the
apprentice to the superintendent level play an
important role in the Air Force’s ability to
accomplish its mission. It is essential that everyone involved in training do their part to plan,
manage, and conduct an effective training program. The guidance provided in this part of the
CFETP will ensure each individual receives viable training at appropriate points in their career.
6.3.1. Apprentice (3) Level.
The initial skills course, E3ALR3F231 01AC Education and
Training Apprentice, must be completed for the award of AFSC 3F231. Initial skills training
requirements were identified during the 3F2X1 STRT.
6.3.2. Journeyman (5) Level.

of AFSC 3F251.
6.3.3. Craftsman (7) Level.
Qualification in and possession of AFSC 3F251. Begin UGT to
the 7-skill level upon selection to SSgt or DOR for ARC. UGT consists of completing: (1) all
core tasks identified with a number “7”; (2) meet time in training requirements as identified by

approved by their commander for the award of AFSC 3F271. Core tasks identified with “7/R”
are mandatory for RegAF but optional for ANG and AFRC.
6.3.4. Superintendent (9) Level.
Qualification in and possession of AFSC 3F271. Must be at
least a Senior Master Sergeant (SMSgt) and meet mandatory requirements listed in the AFECD,
have completed SNCOA or sister-service equivalent, and be recommended by their supervisor
and approved by their commander for award of the 9-skill level.
6.4. 3-Skill Level Training.
The initial skills course, E3ALR3F231 01AC, has been revised by
335 TRS/UOB at Keesler AFB to provide training needed to prepare graduates for education and
training related positions.
6.5. 5-Skill Level Upgrade Training.
There is no advanced 5-level course at this time.
6.6. 7-Skill Level Advanced Training.
There is no advanced 7-level course at this time.

7.
The CFETP Part II identifies thirteen (13) sub-competencies. Each competency is further
broken down into the following proficiency levels: basic, intermediate, advanced, and expert.
The proficiency levels are not tied to a specific rank or position. Additionally, each occupational
competency has supporting competencies tied to them. The supporting competencies allow
Airmen to intentionally develop those transferrable underlying characteristics that will translate
to mission capabilities, mission readiness, and mission success for the agile, future thinking
Airmen. Airmen, supervisors, trainers, mentors, and leaders should look for opportunities to
integrate the supporting competencies into every facet of an Airman’s development as they seek
to gain and increase proficiency within the Education and Training competencies.
8. Community College of the Air Force (CCAF).
Enrollment in CCAF occurs automatically
upon completion of basic military training and assignment to an Air Force career field. CCAF
provides the opportunity to obtain an Associate of Applied Sciences Degree. Exception: AFSC
3F2X1 personnel must request enrollment into the new degree program through their Education
Service Office. In addition to its associate degree program, CCAF offers the following:
