(Senior Members Only) What Is Your Highest Professional Development Level

I haven't completed Level I
Level II is my highest PD level
Level III is my highest PD level
Level IV is my highest PD level
Level V is my highest PD level
Have completed Level I but no others

Gunner C

We've got a very wide range of experience here on the board.  I wanted to see if it's representative of what NHQ says we have nationwide.

Once I teach an RST i can get my masters in cadet Programs and will get Level IV

Level II currently and should be able to knock out III by fall or earlier depending on when I can get to a CLC.

Level III. OBC took care of my Level II, Level III and promotion. Should have everything except RSC done by next month for Level IV. That's gonna be a tough nut to crack.

I am NSC from 5.
Likewise but it's going to be awhile before I go. Probably in 2011 or 2012.

Debating between SOS or RSC.  SOS I can do from home, although it is longer to do.

I'm apparently in the Twilight Zone -- completed Level I, not quite done with Level II (will be done in April after SLS).  Shouldn't the poll options include Level I?  ;D

EDIT: Apparently can't tell the difference between I and II either.

Yes. An option for Level one being the highest completed would be a good one to have and would probably get many hits....  Do over???

I have just 2 tasks before Level IV:
- RSC
- Staff SLS/CLC

SLS or CLC staffing will happen within this year however RSC will likely take a year or two longer I'm sure....  I might go the SOS route as it may provide a duel benefit to my Military Carrier. If I did do SOS, I'd probably still do RSC at a later date anyway...

Just need my Senior rating for Level III.

Gunner C

That's what happens when you try to do a poll and what the Olympics at the same time.  Let's see if the Level One Only folks will show up again!  ::::nuts::::

Will complete SOS in May, everything else is done for Level IV

Gunner C

Does anyone have the actual figures of what the national percentages are for Levels I through V?

Gunner: I seem to recall(in my old demented memory) that someone on this blog posted these figures some time ago.  Couldn't tell you where or when.  PD people at National probably have the data.

Something like 20% of members are Level III's;10% are Level IV's and less than 5% are Level V's. These are just "ballpark" figures but it's probably pretty close.

Level I. I have SLS and OBC to complete for Level II. Taking OBC once the 4th Cohort gets to take the course. Waiting on a Senior Rating and need CLC for Level III. I should have Level III knocked out by the begining of 2011.

I finished the requirements for level IV today by presenting at SLS.  Chaplains can do two Region Chaplain Corps Staff Colleges for one Regional Staff College.  I've had that done for sometime.

Where were you able to pull your info from?  I would love to see my wings breakdown.

Trung Si Ma

Go to e-services, download the 001 CAPWATCH files, then import the data that you want (SeniorAwards) into an excell spreadsheet and have fun.

That info is also available on the Commanders Dashboard application already broken down by Level and if you ask, it will also break it down by rank -- this is so you can see how many Lt. Cols. you have in the Wing who still haven't gone past Level 1.

Its automatic for commanders, but not restricted to them.  Just have to have a good reason and ask for it (winning arguments on CAPTalk, probably wouldn't count  >:D  ).

I wonder what the percent change for all of CAP is for the completion of Level II year over year. The emphasis being how much that percentage increased since OBC was launched...

Two bad the poll isn't editable, we could make it sticky and we can have a continuous picture of the CAPTalk population. (Hint Hint)
