Introduction – I’ll talk to you about the whole process, from wing level experience to HQ, to A1. Reason is, deployed as an A1 staff is syaing that, so you need to have an idea of the whole process in order to survive and assist you forward deployed MO staff that you are there to support.
So if the information begins to jump back and forth, stop me and ask!
Course is set up in 5 blocks – Manpower 101 – Predeployment – Execution – Substainment – Redployment
Readiness now part of 7 level uprade
There are 26 task in our Process Oriented Description for the manpower standard
If you are not trained – ask for it – most is not unit funded
What are the chances of you going? – Last track there were 11 manpower rational slots – add the fact that the new manpower standard and merger has been implemented – chances are probably better then average

3. VOLUNTARY EXTENSION REQUEST
Reference AFI , Ch 9, para 9.20 & AFCENT Policy
Voluntary extension s/b for entire rotation
Partial extensions (case-by-case basis) i.e., gap fill
Request s/b submitted 90 days prior to end of tour
