Download or read book An Analysis of the Navy s Graduate Education Program and Follow on Utilization of Officers by Designator and Subspecialty written by Terri Ekelund Brutzman and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study analyzes the utilization and retention of Naval officers who have received Navy funding for their graduate education. Two databases are used to analyze utilization and retention: the 1993 officer master file and a cohort file of officers who were commissioned in 1980. The 1993 officer master file looks at utilization first by all subspecialties together, second by gender, and finally by designator. The cohort file is used to analyze both utilization and retention. The results indicate that, overall, the Navy receives a relatively good return on its investment. Specifically, the Restricted Line and Staff Corps officer communities have the best utilization rates. The study reveals that Unrestricted Line officers tend to have relatively lower utilization rates than officers in other communities. The cohort data indicate that fully-funded graduate education subspecialists generally have a higher retention rate than their counterparts without fully- funded graduate education.

Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on a cohort of unrestricted line (URL) officers who graduated from the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in 1985 through 1991. The thesis begins with a description of the officers and their subspecialty codes. Patterns of subspecialty utilization are then analyzed by rank, designator, and gender. Results show that the subspecialty utilization rate (as of 1991) for the cohort is 82.4 percent; and the utilization rate for those with degrees from the Department of Administrative Sciences is 85.5 percent. Most officers were Commanders (54.6 percent) at the time of the study, and 87.1 percent were in compliance with Department of Defense (DoD) guidelines for utilization. Surface warfare officers accounted for 41.5 percent of the 1985 cohort; and 75.4 percent met the DoD utilization guidelines. The cohort consisted mostly of males (85.9 percent), 80.7 percent of whom were utilized in compliance with DoD guidelines.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This evaluation of the Army Continuing Education System (ACES) considered the following programs: (a) Tuition Assistance (TA); (b) Functional Academic Skills Training (FAST; (c) Military Occupational Specialty Improvement Training (MOSIT); (d) Noncommissioned Officer (NCO) Leader Skill Enhancement Courses; and (e) the Armed Forces Classification Test (AFCT). The assessment of the effectiveness of these programs is based on their ability to enhance soldier performance and increase the prospects of promotion, as well as to reduce attrition and increase reenlistment. The evaluation data came from a longitudinal administrative database that tracked a three-year accession cohort over a six-year period and an NCO database including self-reported participation in ACES programs, promotion information, and observed performance ratings. The analysis was designed to separate effects of participant characteristics from the effects of the program, and to control for differences in the opportunity and propensity to participate in ACES. Participation in TA and FAST were associated with an increase in the probability of first term reenlistment FAST participation was also associated with lower first-term attrition. Participation in several ACES programs showed positive effects on measures of performance and promotion potential.

Download or read book Analysis of Subspecialty Utilization of Naval Officers with a Focus on Time Spent in Subspecialty Tours written by Jeffrey W. James and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the utilization of subspecialty coded naval officers, with a particular focus on determining the amount of time, or tour length, spent in subspecialty billets for naval officers who possess subspecialty codes received as a result of the Navy's funded graduate education (FGE) program. The results show that the tour length values currently used in the Postgraduate Education Quota Model (PQM) by the Navy are severely inflated, and result in annual FGE quotas being projected 22% below what is necessary to maintain an inventory of subspecialty coded officers capable of fulfilling the Navy's subspecialty billets requirements. Conclusions are that while the tour length values computed in this thesis are accurate, further research is warranted to validate empirically the other input variables used to estimate FGE quotas in order to achieve maximum utility from the PQM.

Download or read book Evaluating Navy s Funded Graduate Education Program written by Kristy N. Kamarck and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The U.S. military services send officers to graduate schools each year to pursue advanced degrees, primarily to fill billet requirements later. This can be costly, including such things as tuition, housing, and pay but also the opportunity cost of the officer not filling an operational billet. Participation in such a program incurs specific service requirements in return, but is that enough to recoup the service's investment? The U.S. Navy asked the researchers to assess the quantitative and qualitative returns on investment (ROI) for funded graduate education. The authors modeled the financial aspects for two sample communities within the Navy and discovered that ROI varies depending on how efficiently graduates are matched with billets and how often they are utilized in the related subspecialty. In some cases, it is simply not possible to recoup the costs financially because it would require extremely long service. On the other hand, soft skills and general knowledge that graduate education provides can increase productivity and improve decision quality. Such considerations might justify making graduate education competitive, with selection targeted toward those most likely to stay in the service and to advance to flag rank. In essence, the Navy would be broadly educating many to achieve future capabilities and an ROI from the few."--P. [4] of cover.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 1973 survey of Naval officers who possess a Navy-sponsored graduate degree was rec and administered in 1994 to determine officers' opinions on topics related to obtaining their degree and the utilization of their education. Results show that most officers desired to study at the 5-8 year point in their career, but did not always do so. Officers viewed graduate education as having a positive influence on personnel retention. Most respondents said that the main reason officers seek graduate education is to remain competitive with their contemporaries. Almost three-quarters of officers believed that getting a P-code is beneficial to an officer's career. Over 90 percent of officers who have served in P-coded billets thought that graduate education was necessary or desirable to perform their duties effectively more graduates in 1994 than twenty years earlier said that the quality of their instructors is excellent. Significantly more officers in the 1994 survey said that their family and social life changed for the better when attending graduate school than did graduates in the 1973 study. The report summarizes the responses to each question and recommends further research.
