Download or read book The Impact of Fully Funded Graduate Education and Resident JPME on Aviator Promotion and Command Selection written by Michael S. Orzell and published by . This book was released on 1998-03-01 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to examine the impact that FFGE and JPME have on aviator promotion to the ranks of Commander and Captain and on selection for command. This thesis accurately measures their impact by incorporating new measures of performance, namely good jobs. These two proxies for performance were developed to help capture those unmeasurable characteristics that do not show up on officer Fitness Reports. This study examines officers appearing before the 1988-1994 Commander and Captain promotion boards. Two separate Log it models are used to estimate the effects of these educational opportunities on promotion both before and after the start of the drawdown. Separate Logit regression models for command screen are also specified for these two time periods. Model results indicate that FFGE had a significant positive impact on Commander selection and a significant negative impact on command selection in the pre-FY90 period. The impact of JPME was significant and positive for promotion to Commander in both periods and for command screen in the pre-FY90 period. Joint Duty Assignment had a significant and negative impact on command selection in both periods. The results of these models may reflect changes in the policies of the aviation community toward FFGE and JPME as well as differences in the officers who choose the educational opportunities. This thesis provides evidence of difficulties in combining FFGE, JPME and JDA in an aviation career.

Phillips and published by . This book was released on 2001-03-01 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis evaluates the effect of fully-funded graduate education on the joint outcome of promote to Pay Grade 5 and screen for squadron command for fixed-wing, carrier-based aviator lieutenant commanders (Pay Grade 4) eligible for the Pay Grade 5 board. Binomial logit models are estimated to examine the impacts of earning a graduate degree, the timing of the degree, and the technical specificity of the degree. The thesis finds no evidence that career progression at this critical point is harmed by acquiring a fully-funded graduate degree. Rather, the thesis finds significant positive effects on promote/screen for those officers earning advanced degrees at selected junctures. Logit model estimates show that aviators with fully-funded technical degrees earned one or more years after the Pay Grade 4 board are 26.9% more likely to promote/screen than aviators without graduate degrees. Additionally, officers who earned graduate degrees on their own time are 5.8% more likely to promote/screen than officers without graduate degrees.
Download or read book An Analysis of the Impact of Graduate Education on the Performance and Retention written by Susan S. Jordan and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis focuses on the impact of graduate education on the promotion performance and retention of General Unrestricted Line Officers. Logistic models are developed to determine the effects of a graduate degree from the Naval Postgraduate School and other sources on the probability of promotion to Lieutenant Commander and Commander, and on retention up to the Lieutenant Command and Commander levels. Results indicate that graduate education has a positive impact on the probability of promotion to Lieutenant Commander, with Naval Postgraduate School showing a stronger effect than other education sources. No significant effect was noted for promotion to Commander. Graduate education was found to have a significantly negative impact on retention prior to the Lieutenant Commander selection point. Results for retention at the Commander selection level were inconclusive. It is recommended that further research be done concerning the impact of graduate education on other officer communities.
Download or read book An Econometric Analysis of the Effect of Fully Funded Graduate Education on Performance for Surface Warfare Officers written by Michael T. Talaga and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis analyzes the impact of the Navy's fully-funded graduate education program on Surface Warfare Officer performance. Three measures of officer performance are used: (1) probability of promotion to O-4; (2) percent of all LT FITREPs recommended for early promotion; and (3) the probability of receiving an early promotion recommendation on the last LT FITREP. Navy Officer Master Files (FY1981 through FY1990), created by Prof. William Bowman, USNA, are merged with NPRDC's Officer FITREP Files to statistically analyze performance differences between Surface Warfare Officers with and without fully-funded graduate education. Ordinary least squares and non-linear maximum likelihood techniques are used to estimate the three performance models. Since selection into the fully-funded program is not random, an attempt is made to model the selection process and to correct for the potential bias in the estimated coefficient of graduate education in the performance models. The findings reveal that fully-funded graduate education has a significant positive impact on the probability of promotion to O-4, but insignificant effects on receiving early promotion recommendations on LT FITREPs. Additionally, selectivity does not appear to bias estimates of fully-funded graduate education in the performance models.

Download or read book The Effect of Graduate Education on Promotion of U S Army Field Grade Officer by Career Field written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to estimate the effect of graduate education on the promotion of a U.S. Army field grade officer. In addition, this thesis investigates whether or not there are significant differences among career fields of the Officers Personnel Management System. To do so, a probit model and three correction models are built. The first correction model uses the Heckit method to correct for sample selection bias. The second model uses the instrumental variable regression method to correct for endogeneity of graduate education. The third model uses the double selection approach that combines the Heckit correction with two stage least squares to correct for both sample selection bias and endogeneity. The probit estimations indicate that the effect of graduate education for a representative officer increase the promotion probabilities by 0.148 and 0.132 for the grades of Lieutenant Colonel and Colonel, respectively. After correcting for sample selection bias, the effect of graduate education on the promotion to Lieutenant Colonel is reduced by 59.5 percent. After correction for endogeneity, this effect is increased by 70.9 percent. Finally, this effect increases by 61.5 percent after correction for both sample selection bias and endogeneity.

This book was released on 2012-08-17 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Command is the ultimate service. It is a time when we have the singular responsibility to create and lead strong Air Force units. A time when our passion for our Air Force and our vision for its future must be overwhelmingly clear. Early in the "Developing Aerospace Leaders" initiative, we began to focus on the way in which the institution teaches leadership and prepares airmen for command. What we found was a wide range of practices and a wide range of expectations - a complicating factor in today's Expeditionary Aerospace Force. We realize that preparing our officers to command effective, mission-oriented units must be a deliberate process. It must develop our unique airman perspective, creating commanders who are able to communicate the vision, have credibility in the mission area, and can lead our people with inspiration and heart. The foundation of our institution's effectiveness has always been its leaders. Colonel Goldfein's work provides valuable lessons learned and serves as a worthwhile tool to optimize your effectiveness as a squadron commander. This book is a must-read, not only for those selected to command a squadron but for all our young officers, helping them understand what the requirements of squadron command will be. Remember, command is a unique privilege - a demanding and crucial position in our Air Force. "Sharing Success - Owning Failure" takes you a step closer to successfully meeting that challenge.
