  1. I'm currently a 6C0 (Contract Specialist) in the Air Force and I have about 11 months until I get out (or re-enlist). I would like to stay within the contracting field but looking from USAJobs.gov, I don't seem to qualify for a 11-02 position even at GS-9. Every Federal agency has different requirements but for the most part, they are very similar. I will be receiving my CCAF (Community College of the Air Force) in Contracts Management shortly and have my level 1 in contracting and have already been trained in level 2 unofficially. One of my co-workers who was ex-military entered the civilian 11-02 position in 2003. He was a prior 6C0 I believe. I'm not sure what the exception was called but active duty military who are in contract specialist positions are waived from the requirements of having a 4 year degree; With this in mind, could I apply to a 11-02 position while I'm active duty and take the position once I'm separated from active duty since the hiring process could take 6-12 months from now. Is there any other way that I could enter the contracting workforce without a 4 year degree? I intend on finishing up school but would like to keep a full-time job doing what I have been doing for the last 3 years. The DoA and DoD have slight differences in the requirements listed below. Department of the Agriculture - http://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/320871200 MINIMUM FEDERAL QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: Grade 09: BASIC REQUIREMENTS A. Successful completion of a full four-year course of study leading to a bachelor's degree with a major in any field. OR B. Successful completion of at least 24 semester/36 quarter hours in any combination of the following fields: accounting, business, finance, law, contracts, purchasing, economics, industrial management, marketing, quantitative methods, or organization and management. OR C. EXCEPTION: Employees in GS-1102 positions will be considered to have met the basic requirement for positions they occupy on January 1, 2000. Employees who occupy GS-1102 positions at grades 5 through 12 will be considered to meet the basic requirements for other GS-1102 positions up to and including those classified at GS-12. ADDITIONAL EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS In addition to meeting the basic entry qualification requirements, applicants must have one (1) year of specialized experience at or equivalent to at least a GS-7. Specialized experience is experience which is in or directly related to contracting work and which has equipped the applicant with the specific knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform successfully the duties of the position to be filled. SUBSTITUTION OF EDUCATION FOR EXPERIENCE The experience requirements for the GS-9 level may be met by successful completion of two (2) full academic years of progressively higher level graduate education in an accredited college or university, in one or a combination of the following fields: accounting, business finance, law, contracts, purchasing, economics, industrial management, marketing, quantitative methods, or organization and management; OR master's or equivalent graduate degree; OR LL.B. or J.D. COMBINATION OF EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE An appropriate combination of successfully completed education and experience may be used to meet the total qualification requirements. //******************************************************************** //******************************************************************** Air Force Material Command - http://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/320877900 BASIC EDUCATION QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: (Must Submit Transcripts With Application) Bachelor's degree from an accredited educational institution authorized to grant baccalaureate degrees AND at least 24 semester hours in business-related courses in any of the following disciplines: accounting, business finance, law, contracts, purchasing, economics, industrial management, marketing, quantitative methods, or organization and management. (This requirement can be obtained within the degree or in addition to the degree). NOTE: The education requirements listed above apply only to individuals entering DoD 1102 positions on or after October 1, 2000. Current members of the armed forces and Current DoD employees are exempt from the basic requirements if they: 1) Served as a contracting officer with authority to award or administer in excess of the simplified acquisition threshold on or before 30 September 2000; 2) Served on or before 30 September 2000, in a position as either an employee in the 1102 series or as a member of the Armed Forces in a similar Contracting Officer Positions. AND SPECIALIZED EXPERIENCE: You must have one year of specialized experience at a level close to the work of this position that has given you the particular knowledge, skills and abilities required to successfully perform.

To be creditable, the specialized experience must have been equivalent to the next lower grade level (GS-07), pay band or equivalent.
