Relevant Education is Key to Military Advancement

Military advancement depends on a variety of factors like time in service, military occupational/operational specialty, meritorious promotion and education to name a few. While there are many differences between corporate and military promotions, both reward time spent on the job or as the military calls it, 'time in grade'. While this time-based system promotes soldiers, airmen, and sailors up to a certain level, military advancement to the upper ranks requires initiative, motivation and education beyond basic training requirements. Those who successfully distinguish themselves from their peers by pursuing an advanced degree have the opportunity advance through the ranks.

Vertical military advancement opportunities are competitive at non-commissioned officer (NCO) levels. Candidates who have sought additional specialty training are rewarded with 'composite points' (self-education points) and respect that can translate into rank advancement opportunities. Demonstration of leadership potential by pursuing a higher-education is an excellent way to not only to learn new skills, but also to earn a degree relevant to your current and desired AFS, rating, or MOS.
