Logistics program
broadens careers at Robins
WASHINGTON (AFPN) -
As the premier logistics
training program in the Air
Force, the logistics career
broadening program pro
vides logistics officers the
chance to attain specialized
knowledge in their career
field.
The two-year program not
only provides unique
instruction in logistics but
also lends opportunities for
officers to grow as leaders
and managers. The career
broadening officer works in
various disciplines, learning
the functions and challenges
of other logistics career
fields and can earn profes
sional certifications in pro
gram management and
acquisition logistics.
“The CBOs gain the
wholesale perspective at an
air logistics center and the
air logistics centers benefit
from the officer’s field-level
experience and different
perspectives on the prob
lems we face as an Air
Force,” said Brig. Gen. Polly
A. Peyer, Pacific Air Forces
director of logistics.
“Countless times each year,
this experience is used to
mold depot processes and
personnel knowledge to
maintain and improve sup
port structures. Bottom
line, the CBO gets the
chance to have a direct
influence on service wide
logistics issues from day
one, while improving their
personal ability to support
the flight-line mission.”
These logistics officers
also have an opportunity to
work on high-level projects.
