CAREER ROADMAP

Seaman Recruit to Master Chief Roadmap

The educational roadmap below will assist Sailors in the Cryptologic Technician - Technical community through the process ofpursuing professional development and advanced education using various military and civilian resources e.g. PQS program;JST Joint Service Transcript; E-Learning; Navy College Network; etc. Successful leadership is the key to military readiness andwill always require a high degree of technical skill, professional knowledge, and intellectual development.

What is a Career Roadmap for Cryptologic Technician - Technical?

Cryptologic Technician - Technical roadmaps are just what the name implies - a roadmap through the Enlisted Learning andDevelopment Continuum from Seaman Recruit through Master Chief. The principal focus is to standardize a program Navy wideby featuring the existing skills necessary to be successful in the Navy. The ultimate goal of a roadmap is to produce a functionaland competent Sailor.

What is the Enlisted Learning and Development Continuum?

Enlisted Learning and Development Continuum is the formal title given to the curriculum and process building on the foundationof Sailorization beginning in our Delayed Entry Program through Recruit Training Command and throughout your entire career.The continuum combines skill training, professional education, well-rounded assignments, and voluntary education. As youprogress through your career, early-on skill training diminishes while professional military education gradually increases.Experience is the ever-present constant determining the rate at which a Sailor trades skill training for professional development.

Do Sailors have to follow the Roadmap?

Yes. The Cryptologic Technician - Technical roadmap includes the four areas encompassed by the Continuum in ProfessionalMilitary Education to include; Navy Professional Military Education (NPME), Joint Professional Military Education (JPME),Leadership and Advanced Education.

Some training and education is mandatory (Recruit Training, Cryptologic Technician-Technical “A” School at the CryptologicTechnician-Technical, E-Learning, etc.). Some may be directed by your chain of command (Microsoft Excel and PowerPointcourses), and the remainder is voluntary (MNP, E-Learning, college courses, etc.). Sailors are advised to seek out mentors,including your Command Master Chief, Senior Enlisted Advisor, Leading Chief Petty Officer, Leading Petty Officer andCommand Career Counselor, and to make use of your Navy College Virtual Education Center (VEC) or OCONUS EducationOffice's vast resources. All are uniquely qualified to help you along the way.

CTT CAREER PATH (IW/SW/AW/SG/NAC/EXW)

1 Revised: December 2019

Cryptologic Technician Technical (CTT). CTTs perform a variety of technically-intensive duties, both afloat and ashore, associated with processing and interpreting RADAR emissions for tactical and strategic value. They operate Electronic Intelligence (ELINT)/Electronic Support (ES) receiving/processing systems and peripheral equipment to provide threat assessments, situational awareness and Indications and Warnings (I&W) in addition to formulating Electronic Attack (EA) techniques and tactics. Additionally, CTTs record and analyze RADAR data to develop and maintain RADAR libraries for strategic analysis and development of deception techniques. They operate and maintain ES and EA systems permanently installed on ships. CTTs perform their duties on ships, submarines, aircraft, patrol craft and at shore commands in the U.S. and overseas. CTTs also augment U.S. Special Operations Forces and Expeditionary Warfare forces abroad. YEARS OF SERVICE

Notes: 1. “A” School required. 2. Sea/Shore Flow for CTTs is 36/36 with the following exceptions: Sailors in the 6YO Advanced Electronics Field, a maintenance technician’s initial sea tour will be 48 months. All other CTTs will complete a 42-month initial sea tour. Initial sea tours for Naval Special Warfare (NSW)-Tactical Information Operations (TIO) are 5 years with a potential 3 year NSW shore duty follow-on tour. In addition, anyone selected for Military ELINT Signals Analyst Program (MESAP) or Military OPELINT Signals Analyst Program (MOSAP) internships are required to fulfill a three-year payback tour upon completion of their internship. MESAP graduates should expect to be assigned to an NSA Shore site in a C22A billet. MOSAP graduates should expect to be assigned to an appropriate C09A billet. Following the payback tour, they are eligible and expected to return to their regular sea/shore rotation. 3. When discussing career enhancing milestones and tours, it is important to understand the effects of the 2003 CTT/EW merger. Prior to the merger, CTTs specialized in both OPELINT and TECHELINT areas, the merger resulted in three distinct areas of focus (adding EW), and today’s CTT has the additional opportunity to augment Special Operations Forces. The rating as a whole benefits from both the CTTs that are diverse and understand all missions of the rating, but also those that are specialized in just one or two areas. Sustained superior performance has always been the key to success, the CTT that is selected for advancement should be the one that has consistently broken out, whether assigned to surface ships, submarines, aircraft, special forces, as an operator, analyst, technician, or maintainer. 4. At the Apprentice and Journeyman levels CTTs are assessed as operators, operator/maintainers, or analysts. No two CTTs will follow identical career patterns; however, on the average, the successful CTT will meet most of the career milestones illustrated in Career Path Continuum in the sequence indicated. 5. TIO billets are sea duty billets that augment Special Operations Command in support of Navy SEAL teams, Special Boat Teams, and other Special Mission Units. This duty is extremely demanding and leadership opportunities may be limited due to the independent nature of the duties assigned. Due to specific training and operational requirements, some CTTs will remain assigned to this functional area based on their technical expertise and corporate knowledge. This is usually a five-year minimum obligation. 6. Air/Subsurface Direct Support billets are sea duty billets that augment aircraft/submarines in support of Fleet and CNO directed special operations. This duty is considered arduous and extremely challenging; some CTTs will remain confined to this functional area based on their technical expertise and corporate knowledge and multiple tours should not be viewed negatively.



7. Consideration should be given to CTT’s who demonstrate rating involvement through participation in important rating modernization functions, including Occupational Standards Review, PQS Development, Navy Tactical Techniques and Procedures revisions, Naval Warfare Publication revisions, Joint Publication revisions, Advancement Exam Readiness Review, Course Curriculum Development and Training Readiness Reviews.

Revised: June 2019

Cryptologic Technician Technical (CTT). Similar to the Active Duty component, Reserve CTTs perform a variety of technical duties,

both afloat and ashore, associated with processing and interpreting RADAR emissions for tactical and strategic value. They operate

Electronic Intelligence (ELINT)/Electronic Support (ES) receiving/processing systems and peripheral equipment to provide threat

assessments, situational awareness and Indications and Warnings (I&W) and formulate Electronic Attack (EA) techniques and tactics.

In addition, CTTs record and analyze RADAR data to develop and maintain RADAR libraries for strategic analysis and development

of deception techniques. Reserve CTTs primarily perform their duties at shore commands in the U.S. and overseas, but can also

perform their duties on ships, submarines, aircraft, and patrol craft where they operate and maintain ES and EA systems. For

mobilizations, CTTs regularly augment U.S. Special Operations and Expeditionary Warfare Forces abroad, as well as serving at

CONUS and OCONUS Cryptologic Centers.

Revised: June 2019

Notes:

1. "A" School is required for this rating.

2. This is not a compressed rating.

3. Cross-assignment to an Information Warfare Community (IWC) billet at any paygrade may be required due to geographic

limitations based on a Sailor’s home of record. However, Sailors should make every effort to seek career diversity or

diversity in billet assignments.

4. While traditionally most CTT billets reside within the NIOC/NSA realm, assignment to other IW units such as CPF, DIA,

ONI, HSM units are areas CTT’s can broaden their knowledge base. Assignment to Expeditionary units such as

SPECWAR, NEIC or a UAV unit are career enhancing and broaden the Sailor’s knowledge of their rate and the joint

warfighting environment at any paygrade.

5. EIWS and other warfare qualifications should be viewed as a noteworthy achievement by Selection Boards. Only Sailors

assigned or mobilized to units under Operational Commands with an approved program have an opportunity to qualify,

but this requires the Sailor to take the initiative. Refer to COMNAVIFOR INSTRUCTION 1414.1A for information

related to the EIWS program.

SELECTION BOARD CHECKLIST FOR CPO PROMOTION TO SCPO

Step 1 - Review your Official Record to see what documentation, qualifications, etc. may be missing or requiring anupdate. This should be accomplished every six months after promotion to Second Class. However, it is imperative thatthis is accomplished six months prior to a selection board. Check the following three major sections to verify your OfficialRecord:

a. BUPERS Online: BUPERS Online (https://www.bol.navy.mil) is your main tool to ensure your record is up to dateand helps you to be proactive in making the most of your promotion opportunity. You should review your:

1. Official Military Personnel File (OMPF): All active duty and reserve personnel having a BOL account, a CAC(with appropriate certificates) and a CAC-enabled computer can now view their OMPF online by selecting theOMPF option on the BOL main menu page. This is the preferred method of obtaining OMPF information toeliminate the unnecessary time-lags caused by waiting days or weeks to receive a requested CD ROM.

2. If Deployed: Click on "Request Record on CD" to order your Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). Thismust be accomplished four to six months before a board convenes, which will allow time for delivery andupdating of your record if required.

3. Check your Performance Summary Record (PSR) and Enlisted Summary Record (ESR) onhttps://www.bol.navy.mil, click on the "ODC, OSR, PSR, ESR" link.

b. Electronic Service Record (ESR) Self-Service ESR: This can be viewed at (https://nsips.nmci.navy.mil) or on theNavy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) ESR server onboard ship.

c. Electronic Training Jacket (ETJ): Log in to My Navy Portal (MNP) and review your entire ETJ making sure thateach section is correct. If not, clicking on "Data Problems" at the bottom of each page which will guide you on howto make corrections or updates.

d. US Navy Awards website: Log in to (https://awards.navy.mil/) to review any awards you may qualify for but wereunaware of. Note that this website is only available from a CAC enabled, NMCI machine.

e. Physical Readiness Information Management System (PRIMS): To log in to PRIMS, first log in to BUPERSOnline at https://www.bol.navy.mil. Then look half way down the page for the PRIMS login athttps://www.bol.navy.mil/bam/.

f. EOSH: The Federal Agency Employee Occupational Safety and Health (EOSH) Toolkit is available athttps://www.osha.gov/dep/fap/eosh_toolkit.html. It provides a one-stop-shop website that includes "just in time"information about maintaining a safe and healthful workplace.

Step 2 - Submit appropriate missing documents to the selection board.

a. Selection board packages provide candidates the opportunity to submit any documents missing from the sectionsof their records which are viewed by the selection boards. MILPERSMAN 1070-080 specifies which documentsfrom the enlisted permanent personnel record are provided to the selection board for review. Any documents themember has verified as missing from those sections of their permanent personnel record may be submitted as aselection board package.

b. For submissions directly to the board and for those circumstances where the eligible candidate cannot get theirofficial record updated and confirmed prior to the selection board convening date:

1. All correspondence should be on plain white paper for readability; paper clipped (no staples, binders, folders,or tabs) and submitted under cover letter to the president of the board. Candidates must verify the correctsubject line and board number (see below) is on their cover letters to ensure their packages appear beforethe proper board.

2. Correspondence must include your Full name and SSN, must be affixed and legible on all documentssubmitted, and must be emailed encrypted to the address provided in the associated NAVADMIN orpostmarked not later than the date listed in the associated NAVADMIN addressed to:

NAVY PERSONNEL COMMAND CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTERPRESIDENTFY-XX ACTIVE/RESERVE E8 ENLISTED SELECTION BOARD #XXX5640 TICONDEROGA LOOP BLDG 768 RM E302MILLINGTON TN 38055 (Active = 235 / SELRES = 205 / FTS = 206)

(Use of special handling mail (certified or registered) is not advised due to significant delays in handling.)

c. Ensure official record reflects any individual augmentation mission (awards, evals, NEC, etc).

d. Check https://www.public.navy.mil/bupers-npc/boards/activedutyenlisted/Pages/GeneralInformation.aspx to verifythat the selection board has received your correspondence (if sent).

NOTE: It is highly recommended that if corrections or updates are made, review your OMPF; or if Deployed, re-order your CD-ROM to confirm changes. (NOTE: Please allow 60 days for changes to take effect)

Step 3 - After reviewing your service record - such as evaluations, awards, qualifications, etc. - start reviewing what youcan do to improve yourself, such as:

a. Request a Career Development Board (CDB) through your chain of command.

b. Take a good, hard look at the type of Collateral Duties you are assigned. Review your command collateral dutiesinstruction and talk with your COC and / or appear before the CDB. Take the tough command duties that providethe most involvement in the command as a whole and that have direct Sailor support.

c. Review your current level of education to see how far along you are in earning a college degree and pursue non-resident Navy courses to expand your level of knowledge. Complete the Navy e-Learning courses on MNP thatare recommended in this document. Check Navy COOL (https://www.cool.navy.mil/usn) for any related credentialsfor which you may be qualified.

d. Check out OTHER Learning Opportunities to add to your service record, such as the CANTRAC Volume I(Training Facilities) and CANTRAC Volume II (Course Descriptions) athttps://main.prod.cetars.training.navy.mil/cetars/main.html.

Step 4 - Review qualifications that your rating values or requires for advancement and create a plan to earn theseimportant pieces in the professional growth and advancement puzzle. Read the applicable NAVADMIN for additionaldates and information, and review previous selection board precepts.

More information is available online at: https://jst.doded.mil/

The American Council on Education (ACE)

ACE has reviewed every course listed in the OCCUPATIONAL Roadmap and determined what type of collegiate level credit isrecommended. The ACE identifier, listed with each course, is a source to validate the information and to check for changes asthey occur.

Updates can be found at http://www.acenet.edu/news-room/Pages/Military-Guide-Online.aspx.

Vocational Certificates

Vocational Certificates are available from most community colleges. Most of your military training can be counted toward theirdegree programs, but they will still require residency credits and approximately 40-75 credit hours. These certificates can be asvaluable as the apprenticeship program in the civilian work force.

College credits by Testing CLEP, DSST

Testing can replace the requirement to attend most of the college courses listed in the Occupational Roadmap. Base EducationCenters offer CLEP and DSST exams for active duty military at no cost. They also offer a comprehensive list of "credit-by-exam"tests. Additionally, many of the tests have study guides available. These tests are available at the base education center orthrough the base library system. For specific testing locations visit the DANTES website.

College Entrance Exams Testing ACT, SAT

The ACT and SAT are both standardized tests that help colleges evaluate candidates. Many colleges require that studentssubmit test results as part of the admission application process. Since Sailors are considered transfer students, these tests arenot generally required for admission. However, some Sailors must take the tests to enter specific military programs.
