Public Affairs AFSC 3N0X1 OSSN 2287.
Abstract
Survey Coverage: The Public Affairs career ladder was surveyed to obtain current job and task data for use in examining training programs. The survey was conducted jointly with the Radio and Television Broadcasting career ladder (AFSC 3N0X2). Survey results are based on responses from 518 respondents in both the 3N0Xl and 3N0X2 career fields. There are 265 3NOXl personnel in the current study. This represents 52 percent of all assigned 3NOXl personnel. The Air National Guard (ANG), Air Force Reserve (AFRC) and all major commands are satisfactorily represented in the survey sample. Specialty Jobs: Two clusters and four independent jobs were identified in the career ladder structure analysis. The two clusters were Writing and Editing and Supervisors. Four independent jobs were also identified: Instructors, Community Relations, Media Relations, and Resource Managers. Career Ladder Progression: Nearly all 3-skill level personnel perform mostly writing and editing tasks, although a portion of their time is also spent on photography related tasks. Although 5-skill level personnel still perform mostly writing and editing tasks, they also have a minimal supervisory aspect. The 7-skill level members devote most of their time to supervisory/management duties; however, some of their time is still spent performing writing and editing tasks. The 9- and CEM-skill levels perform mostly supervisory related tasks.
