Abstract:

The purpose of this project was to examine the feasibility of a Dual- Track system of career management for the rated personnel in the United States Air Force.

Chapters Two and Three discuss the current career management systems of the United States Air Force and the British Royal Air Force respectively. Chapter Four discusses the basic guidelines and framework for the proposed Dual-Track system. Chapter Five is a cost analysis showing the cost savings gained through implementation of the new system. The final chapter consists of conclusions and recommendations derived from this study. Keywords Combat Readiness, Training, Careers, Costs, Air Force Personnel.
