  7. Off-Ramps • Primarily for IDC and Supply communities • Select as LDO (no degree required) • Laterally transfer to RL / Staff at 6-8 year point (degree/certifications required) • Advanced educational opportunities at Naval Post-Graduate School (NPS) and War College • Increased service lengths (30 YCS) • Increased promotion opportunity (100% to date) • Potential for Flag Officer (no Flags as LDO) Begins now FY-13

Flying CWOs • Program is being eliminated • Cannot provide reasonable career progression within CWO community • URL inventory is short • Proposed transition options include: • Conversion to URL / Active Component • Conversion to URL / Reserve Component • Conversion to FTS • Conversion to other LDO/CWO designator qualified for • Each option required independent legal approval NAVADMIN 192/13

  10. Is this program for you? • Do you like the technical aspects of your job? • Are you the “go to” leader that has the answers? • Do you like taking charge? • Do you want to do so on a broader scale? • Do you want the authority to make a difference? • And the associated increase of responsibility? • Do you thrive on challenging assignments? • And want to apply your highly honed technical skills with less restrictions? • Do you want more certainty in your career • More for you and your family… FOREVER

  11. Program Overview The Limited Duty Officer and Chief Warrant Officer Programs provide our Navy with experienced technical specialists and managers who have extensive expertise and authority to direct the most difficult and exacting technical operations at sea and ashore. The differences in the formal definitions of LDOs and CWOs are subtle, focusing on the degree of authority and responsibility.

  12. LDO Program • For Sailors who enjoy leading Sailors in their technical field and want less restrictions in calling the shots • Commissioning path for outstanding leaders that may be lacking a degree • Leaders with strong technical backgrounds • Ultimately want to be the OIC, XO or CO • Major Command the pinnacle goal • Increased leadership opportunity for CWOs

  13. LDO Eligibility • U.S. citizen • No age restriction • High School Diploma or equivalent • Serving as a MCPO, SCPO, CPO or PO1 • At least 8, but not more than 14 years of active naval service prior to 1 Oct of FY for which applying (READ ANNOUNCING NAVADMIN UPON RELEASE FOR FY-15 WAIVER POLICIES) • Meet physical standards. • No court martial or civilian conviction for other than minor offenses or NJP for 3 years prior to 1 Oct of year applying • PO1s must complete all eligibility requirements for E-7 (except TIR and Leadership Training Continuum) and must achieve selection board eligibility in the annual CPO advancement • Recommended by CO OPNAVINST 1420.1B, NAVADMINs 281/12, 176/13 and 177/13
