Is there opportunity for mobility through a change in geographical location?
There are many opportunities for serving in the Commissioned Corps throughout the Nation. Officers may choose to work within the same agency or program or they may choose to transfer to other agencies or programs across the country. The Corps supports an officer's pursuit of diverse work experiences and career advancement. Geographic mobility may allow officers to achieve this. An officer may move frequently throughout his/her career but a minimum assignment of two years at each duty station is expected. Refer to the Active Duty Station Map to learn more about the duty stations where Corps officers are currently serving.
