Identify the military starting point
Select the service branch, personnel category, occupation code, and title. Review the associated knowledge, skills, and abilities, then ask the participant which tasks reflect their actual service experience.
Illustrative organizational use case
Make military experience a clearer starting point for civilian planning.
Help service members and veterans connect their specialty to civilian occupations, investigate differences, and prepare a practical next step.
The starting challenge
Military & veterans
A service member can describe their military responsibilities but finds it difficult to explain how those capabilities relate to civilian work. A similar civilian title can hide different tasks, education expectations, or credential requirements.
How the organization could use it
A practical workflow
to explore together.
Translate capabilities into civilian questions
Explore civilian occupations and read their tasks and work context. Compare the military HR specialty with Human Resources Specialists; ask for civilian-language examples of records work, communication, and personnel support.
Check preparation without assuming equivalence
Investigate education, training, and certifications. Verify prerequisites, civilian licensing where applicable, and employer requirements. Ask the school or relevant authority about credit recognition; military service does not automatically establish credit, credentials, or admission eligibility.
Build a civilian transition plan
Use My Career Path for development goals, timeframes, networking, and mentors. A next step could be a conversation with a civilian HR practitioner and rewriting two service tasks as clear examples of relevant work.
Actual product view

INSIDE THE SOFTWARECivilian possibilities
01 / Civilian possibilities
See civilian directions to investigate.
The populated military results show Human Resources Specialists as a civilian occupation to explore. Open the role and examine its actual work before deciding whether the direction fits.
- Alignment produces occupation possibilities, not a personal qualification decision.
- Occupation categories help narrow the investigation.
- The selected civilian occupation leads into research, fit comparisons, preparation, and planning.
The question to answer
Does this civilian work use experience I can demonstrate?
INSIDE THE SOFTWARESkills fit
02 / Skills fit
Compare the capabilities behind the titles.
The military HR specialty and civilian Human Resources Specialists have different reference levels. The report makes those differences visible instead of assuming that similar titles mean identical preparation.
- Read the named occupation pair before interpreting a row.
- Writing is 53 for the military occupation reference and 57 for the civilian reference, marked acceptable in the report.
- Importance and skill levels are separate measures. Use your own work examples to assess personal proficiency.
The question to answer
What evidence would I show, and what would I need to practice?
Useful outputs to work toward
What a participant
could leave with.

- A plan for development, civilian networking, mentoring, and follow-up.
Your organization’s role
Keep judgment and follow-up in the workflow.
The program provides individualized transition guidance, verifies benefits and eligibility through the appropriate channels, and helps participants explain their experience. No military or government endorsement, benefit eligibility, automatic credit transfer, or employment outcome is implied.
