Literature Review on Concurrent Dual Career Development in the URL (unrestricted Line)
Abstract
The development of members of the unrestricted line (URL) community as potential materiel professionals (MP) is extremely vital to the Navy because of the operational experience that these officers can bring to the MP positions. However, few junior officers have developed their MP abilities in the past. The Navy currently has not developed policies to aid the URL officer in the simultaneous development of two partially related skills. Therefore, there is a need to develop a framework for understanding and identifying the parameters involved in the effective design and administration of policy for URL officers in concurrent development of dual careers. The first objective of the contract is reported here. The first primary objective of the contract was to review and integrate available research and practice on dual career ladders. The outcome of this review identifies 10 career areas that contribute to the development and management of dual or multiple career ladders. The primary conclusion was that there is a need to develop and integrated human resource system that will support both the operational needs of the URL and the managerial/technical needs of the MP community. Keywords: Job transfer, Experimental learning.
