Nonprior Service College Graduate Airmen Responses to Selected Questions from the March 1971 Airman Sample Survey,

Abstract

Information on first term nonprior service college graduate (NPSCG) airmen was provided by examining their responses to selected questions from the March 1971 Airman Sample Survey. Areas of interest included the availability and use of accelerated training in technical schools, job satisfaction, job effectiveness, and the value of college training to Air Force jobs. Comparisons were made between the responses of NPSCG airmen and first term noncollege graduate airmen and between NPSCG airmen assigned to various career fields, Results of the anlyses indicated the following: NPSCG airmen had less opportunity for accelerated training than did noncollege graduate airmen, but had significantly better results when such training was available. Percentagewise, more college graduates were displeased with their Air Force jobs and considered their jobs dull than did noncollege graduate airmen. Also, it was determined that the value of academic specialties to Air Force jobs is highly related in a positive direction to job satisfaction. (Modified author abstract)
