Utilization of Advanced Academic Degrees in Acquisition Logistics Division under a Percentage-Based System.

Abstract

The Air Force has tentatively decided to implement a percentage-based system for the assignment of Advanced Academic Degree (AAD) holders. Presently there is no process available to determine what the correct ratio of AAD's should be. The process posited by this thesis measures the level at which specified positions are required to be worked in three specific educational areas; unique knowledge, task complexity, and policy formulation. these three areas are demonstrated to be reasonable differentiators between AAD holders and lesser requirements by showing their relationship to an accepted educational hierarchy, Bloom's Taxonomy. The thesis tests the proposed system on an Air Force work center and concludes that it is a feasible way to establish AAD percentages. (Author)
