Join special assignment subject matter experts April 20 at 2 p.m., Eastern Time as they present information about unique assignments, which can help your professional development enabling you to take advantage of rewarding and unique assignments. This virtual event is the fourth in a series of 10 sessions Officer Personnel Management Division (OPM) is offering this assignment year.
In addition to featuring expert presentations, the online session will be dedicated to answering your questions. You will learn how special assignments for assignment year 2022 (AY22) went and receive guidance to prepare you for the upcoming assignment season. There will be a specific focus on eResumes and what it means to be on a “short-list.”
“Officers should consider support and special assignments as a way to broaden themselves and open doors for additional future leadership opportunities outside of their primary specialty,” said Cmdr. Sarah Brennan, senior Support and Special Assignment officer.
