Career and Professional Development

In today’s Navy, Sailors are expected to take ownership of their own careers and professional development. To support their efforts and to ensure Sailors are afforded every possibility for success, Career Counselors must ensure that Sailors are thoroughly familiar with and use their Navy Career Tools. If Sailors do not use them they will miss the opportunities and advantages provided for them.

IMPORTANT: Recent studies indicate most Sailor personnel records are inaccurate and incomplete. At a minimum, all Sailors should conduct an inventory review of their OMPF and ESR as soon as possible. Thereafter, Sailors should review both records at a minimum of once per year.
