Information Warfare Officers - What We Look For In Lateral Transfers To OUR Community

 
Information Warfare (IW) - (1810). Applicants within this community will be considered from any designator. Primary consideration should be given to sustained superior performers with the skills, education, and background to contribute to the IW core competencies of Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Electronic Warfare (EW), and Computer Network Operations (CNO).

The IW community has technical leadership opportunities for officers with undergraduate and graduate degrees in the following preferred fields of study: electrical engineering, systems engineering, computer engineering, physics, mathematics, or computer science. Experience and certifications gained outside traditional academic venues should also be recognized and considered by the Board.

From the Lateral Transfer Board Precepts.

    Now if we as a community would just embrace them and do as we say instead of as we have always done.

    Time is the best judge and we will all see.

    You can pretty much boil it down to 2 things: sustained superior performance...and being a SWO/Submariner!!!! IW took 4 Submariners...that's where it's at!!!

    I've met a lot of lat transfers that were great leaders but very few that became great cryptologists.
