It describes certificate design and numbering, eligibility for Officers and Civilians, qualifying billets, execution, funding, and review. Candidates must meet service, training, competency, and documentation requirements, while the program remains voluntary.
Applies to: Officers and Civilians must meet the following requirements:
Candidates must have 12 years of service time in qualifying billets, listed below, in order to receive credit toward the certificate.
Candidates must have earned AJMI status and have obtained four of the ten advanced competencies as defined in Reference (a).
Any candidate (active duty, current civilian employees or retired Coast Guard personnel) who meet the listed criteria may provide Commandant (CG-741) with official documentation (Officer Evaluation Report, Employee Summary Sheet, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, DD Form 214, etc.) proving eligibility.
Only one certificate will be issued during a member’s career; therefore, if an eligible recipient desires a certificate closer to retirement, or to capture more time, they should contact Commandant (CG-741) for direction.
