So 21 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,430 tell us a little bit about D . S . C . 22 00:00:51,430 --> 00:00:55,350 S . Sure , so developmental special 23 00:00:55,350 --> 00:00:58,200 experience and our acronym is dsc . 24 00:00:58,940 --> 00:01:01,280 There are hands on experiences and 25 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,530 they're typically not in your formal 26 00:01:03,540 --> 00:01:06,510 duty , your formal formal job . They 27 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,920 are experiences where airmen can gain 28 00:01:09,930 --> 00:01:12,470 or enhance their competencies . It's 29 00:01:12,470 --> 00:01:14,414 pretty exciting actually . They're 30 00:01:14,414 --> 00:01:17,150 external to your primary duties and 31 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,390 they are established reoccurring 32 00:01:19,390 --> 00:01:21,001 opportunities with different 33 00:01:21,001 --> 00:01:23,112 organizations . Well let's jump right 34 00:01:23,112 --> 00:01:25,223 in . It's always great to learn about 35 00:01:25,223 --> 00:01:27,390 new things but there's value in seeing 36 00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:29,690 how it actually works . So can you show 37 00:01:29,690 --> 00:01:31,801 us how to navigate my vector and find 38 00:01:31,801 --> 00:01:33,801 it ? Yes , let's go on to my vector 39 00:01:33,801 --> 00:01:36,630 right now . Okay , so this is the my 40 00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:40,000 vector site . This is the homepage 41 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,660 where if you have a registration 42 00:01:42,670 --> 00:01:44,781 already in the system and my vector , 43 00:01:44,781 --> 00:01:47,250 click on , log on . If you're not 44 00:01:47,250 --> 00:01:49,417 registered you need to click on . Sign 45 00:01:49,417 --> 00:01:52,120 up . So I'm going to click log on . 46 00:01:52,130 --> 00:01:55,150 This is the dashboard on the far left , 47 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,390 you'll see a list on this tab of 48 00:01:57,390 --> 00:01:59,840 different titles and we'll go into the 49 00:01:59,850 --> 00:02:02,680 development plan . There are three tabs 50 00:02:02,690 --> 00:02:05,023 in the center under my development plan , 51 00:02:05,023 --> 00:02:07,134 we're going to click on developmental 52 00:02:07,134 --> 00:02:10,110 special experience catalog . Let's go 53 00:02:10,110 --> 00:02:13,900 ahead and show you the catalog . We 54 00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:16,160 have the title button , Airman type , 55 00:02:16,540 --> 00:02:20,140 ranking , grade , component , career 56 00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,410 fields , civilian series , duration and 57 00:02:23,410 --> 00:02:25,510 location . You can choose the airman 58 00:02:25,510 --> 00:02:27,900 type in this block here . It will show 59 00:02:27,900 --> 00:02:30,122 a drop down when you click in the blank 60 00:02:30,122 --> 00:02:32,640 space . So there are several ways you 61 00:02:32,640 --> 00:02:34,807 can do that if you you're not aware of 62 00:02:34,807 --> 00:02:36,640 the title but you you're wanting 63 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:38,696 something that you think is going to 64 00:02:38,696 --> 00:02:40,950 fit your needs to progress in your 65 00:02:40,950 --> 00:02:44,500 career and also the duration is good 66 00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:47,140 and the location , some of these DFCS 67 00:02:47,150 --> 00:02:49,620 have a PCS involved and some of them 68 00:02:49,620 --> 00:02:52,220 don't . So if you're stationed at a 69 00:02:52,220 --> 00:02:55,050 particular base or installation where 70 00:02:55,050 --> 00:02:57,300 this is offered and only that 71 00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:59,411 installation , then you can apply for 72 00:02:59,411 --> 00:03:02,770 it . So let's say today I wanted to 73 00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:05,760 filter this by organizational 74 00:03:09,340 --> 00:03:12,450 and let's see what we get voila . We've 75 00:03:12,450 --> 00:03:15,010 got organizational change management , 76 00:03:15,010 --> 00:03:17,770 master trainer . So you can see 77 00:03:17,770 --> 00:03:20,410 everything in short on the first row . 78 00:03:20,420 --> 00:03:22,640 But if you click this , it will show 79 00:03:22,640 --> 00:03:25,050 you everything you need to know about 80 00:03:25,050 --> 00:03:27,070 this particular experience . 81 00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:31,170 Pretty interesting shows you all the 82 00:03:31,180 --> 00:03:33,400 information up , top on what type of 83 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,060 airmen component location and duration 84 00:03:37,060 --> 00:03:39,227 and how many experiences they have per 85 00:03:39,227 --> 00:03:42,330 year . The point of contact information 86 00:03:42,330 --> 00:03:44,430 will have the organization and their 87 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,580 email address .

It is and I 90 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,090 think that this is a great resource not 91 00:03:56,090 --> 00:03:58,850 just for the airmen himself herself , 92 00:03:58,860 --> 00:04:00,527 but it's also really good for 93 00:04:00,527 --> 00:04:03,750 supervisors , mentors and leaders to 94 00:04:03,750 --> 00:04:06,290 help their airmen grow and develop and 95 00:04:06,290 --> 00:04:09,000 create that plan to start out their 96 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,150 career and finish their career .
