What is OI&RSD?

A program where you will:

  • Recruit, train, or instruct future & current officers in a stable, supportive environment
  • Temporarily step outside of your career field to broaden your impact on the Air and Space Forces
  • Create unique experiences with a broad mix of fellow faculty and students

Note:
Depending on the position and job requirements, eligible Airmen and Guardians in the grade of First Lieutenant through Lieutenant Colonel are able to apply.

Application Process

The Space Force holds a similar, but separate, process for eligible Guardians.  Look out for your automated message during your eligibility window to prepare for the  application timeline.

  • ☐ First, discuss your desires with your Senior Rater (SR)
  • ☐ During the annual window, you and your SR will receive an eligibility message
  • ☐ If eligible, you can apply through myVector - applicants must also be SR-nominated to be considered
  • ☐ A board will evaluate your suitability and a list of candidtates will be announced
  • ☐ Candidates may apply for positions in Talent Marketpace within myVector
  • ☐ If chosen for an assignment, your name will appear on the selection list released in the Fall!

Promotion Board Guidance

Serving in specific Special Duty roles, like that of Instructor, is valued by senior DAF leadership. Prior to each promotion board, board members are issued guidance on what they should consider while evaluating member records. The Secretary of the Air Force instructs board members to “consider OI&RSD essential to warfighting success,” advises them that members who have served in that role have been “competitively selected,” and that serving in such roles “increases skill sets and future leadership potential."
