OPM-4 Mission Statement

To provide dedicated career management counseling to officers of all grades; with special emphasis on individual competitiveness, future career decisions, and officer career management analysis while serving as a resource in responding to other staff actions concerning officer career management. 

Also, upon request, to counsel officers concerning competitiveness and failure of selection for Post-Graduate and promotion for grades CWO2 thru O-6. 

OPM-4 targets junior officers (O3 & below) since their careers are typically less defined than more senior officers. Consequently, they tend to have more questions about how different assignment scenarios could impact future career aspirations.  Nonetheless, any officer who desires to discuss aspects of their career will be given ample opportunity and have the ability to benefit from OPM-4 services.

Record of Professional Development (CG-4082)

Download Form

This optional form is an important and often overlooked component of an officer's record. At a minimum it is recommended that all officers submit an updated CG-4082 annually, preferably prior to a selection or promotion panel.  Each form that you submit becomes a part of your record and is not replaced by previous submissions, there is no need to repeat information on subsequent forms.

It is important to remember that just because a qualification is listed in Direct Access it is NOT automatically in your PDR.  It is strongly recommended that Officer's document all significant education, training and qualifications on a CG-4082 regardless of whether it is in Direct Access or not. 

The completed form should be submitted to the PSC Records Branch (ADM-3). To ensure documents remain legible, it is recommended that you scan and email documents directly to your Record Technician based on the last 3 digits of your SSN: http://www.uscg.mil/psc/adm/adm3/contact.asp
