The board will not accept applications for FTS submarine warfare or explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) communities. 2. Complete application packages and waiver requests must be received NLT 1600 CST, 27 September 2013. 3. Eligibility. The FTS program is offering opportunities for regular AC and SELRES officers to transition into the following FTS officer communities to meet immediate manning needs in the year group (YG) indicated: Community/Designator Available YG(s) FTS SWO (1167/1117) 01-04 (see para 3.a), 05 and junior FTS SUB (1127) none FTS SPECWAR (1137) 05 and junior FTS EOD (1147) none FTS AVIATION (1317/1327) 02 and junior FTS HR (1207) 00-01 (see para 3.a), 02 and junior FTS AMDO (1527) 02 and junior FTS SUPPLY (3107) 05-06, 08 and junior a. Senior YG additional requirements by designator: (1) FTS SWO (1117). YG 01-04 applicants must already have completed command qualifications, gained the LN7 additional qualification designator (AQD), and must have qualified tactical action officer (TAO) and engineering officer of the watch (EOOW). Alternately, YG 01-04 applicants with significant and current Regional Collaboration (RC) management experience such as a Naval Operational Support Center (NOSC) commanding officer may apply with a waiver request endorsed by their reserve component commander ISIC. (2) FTS HR (1207). YG 00-01 applicants must already have completed a master's degree in manpower systems analysis (MSA), operations analysis (OA), financial management (FM), information technology (IT), information system technology (IST) or human resource (HR) related field of study. All applicants must have either two years of HR related experience or successfully completed a corresponding milestone tour in their source communities (e.g. SWO Department Head or Aviation Department Head). This criteria is not waiverable. b. In addition to the above YG limitations, all applicants must meet eligibility requirements outlined in ref (a) and the fall FY-14 FTS eligibility criteria document posted at http:www.public.navy.mil /bupers-npc/officer/communitymanagers/reserve/fts/pages/ ftsredesignationboard.aspx. General eligibility requirements include projected rotation date (PRD), minimum service requirement (MSR) and aviation career continuation pay (ACCP) limits as explained below: (1) PRD. Any applicant (AC, FTS or SELRES on Active Duty for Special Work (ADSW), mobilization or recall orders) must have a current PRD NLT 7 May 2015. (2) MSR. Any applicant currently under an MSR must have an MSR end date on or prior to 7 November 2015. (3) ACCP. Naval aviators and naval flight officers currently obligated under ACCP must have an ACCP end date on or prior to 7 November 2014. Obligated service due to ACCP is not waiverable. c. YG eligibility may be adjusted based upon community requirements up until the application due date. The most up-to-date YG eligibility matrix will be posted on the FTS redesignation website. d. Members who do not meet all eligibility requirements per ref (a) and the fall FY-14 FTS eligibility criteria document posted on the FTS redesignation board website may submit a waiver request as a part of their application. General eligibility requirements may be waived (for example, if PRD eligibility is exceeded by one month). However, designator-specific eligibility requirements are not waiverable (for example, applicants for FTS aviation must already be naval aviator or naval flight officer qualified). e. Waiver packages must include member's waiver request and commanding officer's endorsement of the waiver request. This endorsement is separate from any endorsements contained in the member's transfer/redesignation application and must specifically address the eligibility criterion requiring a waiver. An example of a waiver request can be found at http://www.public.navy.mil/bupers- npc/officer/communitymangers/reserve/fts/documents/fts%20redesig%20s ampleofwaiverrequest.docx. f. Reserve direct commission officers (DCO), limited duty officers (LDO), and chief warrant officers (CWO) are eligible for the FTS program. All officers applying to the FTS officer program must possess a 4-year baccalaureate degree. CWOs who are within six months of completing their baccalaureate degree may apply, but selection will be contingent upon completing the degree and redesignation will not occur until after degree is completed. CWOs are considered without regard to YG in communities accepting applications and where they meet the eligibility requirements of ref (a) posted on the FTS officer community manager (OCM) website. g. SELRES officers currently serving under temporary recall orders are encouraged to apply if they meet all other applicable eligibility requirements. h. Subject to other criteria, AC officers with a pending or approved resignation from AC are eligible and are strongly encouraged to apply. i. Current eligibility requirements (both general and specific FTS officer community requirements), YG restrictions by community, and information on application procedures are posted on the FTS redesignation board website. Applications from officers who do not meet eligibility criteria will not be considered by the board. The FTS OCM website contains valuable information about the FTS program as well as information about the various FTS officer communities. 4. Application requirements. Application packages for this board shall consist of two parts: the BUPERS online (BOL) e-application and supporting documents to include waiver requests if applicable. a. BOL e-application. The BOL e-application can be accessed in the application menu at www.bol.navy.mil. Applicants will receive email confirmation that their e-application has been received.

Applicants forward deployed with limited BOL access or connectivity issues should contact PSC Audrey Dixon at audrey.dixon(at) navy.mil to discuss manual submission. b. Supporting documents. Applicants must submit a cover letter with command endorsement and evidence of medical/physical readiness depending upon the community to which the applicant is applying. Such documents will only be accepted directly from the applicant. Third-party submissions will not be considered. Optional supporting documents may include: letters of recommendation, FITREPS, awards, evidence of graduate education, or updated photo not already contained in the member's official military personnel file (OMPF).
