RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN cancels and replaces reference (a), by clarifying
program requirements, updating Sailor eligibility, instituting a centralized
registration process, clarifying command approval procedures, and updating
the SkillBridge point of contact.
References (b) through (e) provide authority for the Navy to implement
employment skills training and transition assistance programs.
2. The SkillBridge program is designed to help eligible members departing
the Naval service. Reference (b) defines an eligible member as any member of
the Armed Forces who has completed at least
180 days on Active Duty (AD) in the Armed Forces and is expected to be
discharged or released from AD within 180 days of the date of commencement of
participation in the SkillBridge program. Sailors may not extend their
enlistment to complete a SkillBridge program.
3. To balance Sailor benefits and mission readiness, SkillBridge
participation should not normally begin any earlier than 120 days prior to
actual separation/retirement date. In no case shall SkillBridge
participation begin any earlier than 180 days prior to actual
separation/retirement date. Sailors may not use leave or any other
authorized absence to begin a SkillBridge program greater than
180 days from separation. Any approved separation, terminal leave, and
permissive temporary duty (TDY) shall occur following SkillBridge
participation. Sailors will remain the responsibility of the parent command
for administrative purposes. As such, SkillBridge participants must make
weekly contact with their command point of contact for personnel
accountability. Failure to maintain weekly contact may result in program
termination and return to the permanent duty station (PDS) at the members
expense.
4. Sailors must meet the following eligibility requirements:
a. Be separating from the Navy and have sufficient time remaining under
their contract to complete the program prior to established separation date.
b. Have successfully passed their most recent physical fitness
assessment.
c. Be recommended for advancement or promotion and retention on most
recent evaluation or fitness report.
d. Have completed their Transition Assistance Program requirements.
e. Have attended an ethics brief or completed a DoD (Department of
Defense) approved ethics training presentation within the 12 months prior to
the start of the SkillBridge program.
f. Have not previously completed, be currently participating in, or had
participation terminated from an employment skills training program.
5. SkillBridge is not an entitlement. Commanding officers (COs) and
officers in charge with non-judicial punishment authority maintain final
approval authority. COs have full authority to disapprove or modify
participation based on mission requirements.
COs should carefully consider command readiness when granting permission to
participate in the program in light of the fact that personnel backfills are
not normally available until the actual separation/retirement date of the
participant.
a. COs shall evaluate each request to participate in SkillBridge on the
merits as they impact the individual Sailor and mission readiness. Commands
shall not implement any additional restrictions on participation based on
such criteria as rank/grade, education, skills, length of service, etc.
b. Commands should establish a formal process to assess the impact of
SkillBridge participation on mission readiness.
c. SkillBridge participation need not align with the Sailors military
skill set.
d. Command policies or instructions should address application
timelines, procedures and personnel accountability for participants, to
include periodic contact with the command.
e. Commands will place all SkillBridge participants on permissive TDY
travel orders for the duration of their program until commencement of
separation, terminal leave, and permissive TDY, if authorized. This applies
to programs both outside and within the area of the Sailors PDS.
f. SkillBridge is considered official duty, authorized to be completed
during normal work days and hours. Commands will place Sailors in a duty-
free status while participating in SkillBridge.
6. Sailors may only participate in a SkillBridge program with industry
partners or employers that have an approved memorandum of understanding (MOU)
with the DoD. A list of approved programs can be found on the SkillBridge
web portal, located at https://skillbridge.osd.mil/organizations.htm.
Organizations listed on the website are in good standing with DoD. COs will
only approve participation through the end of the approved MOU in cases where
a partners MOU will expire during a Sailors requested SkillBridge period.
COs may extend a Sailors participation if the MOU is renewed prior to
expiration.
a. COs may not enter into an MOU to approve an employer or industry
partner as a SkillBridge provider.
b. Installation COs may enter into MOUs with DoD approved providers for
the purpose of operating a SkillBridge program on base.
c. A participation MOU or other similar agreement required by a
SkillBridge provider to outline roles and responsibilities of each party
(provider, Sailor, command) is authorized.
7. Sailors receiving special and incentive (S and I) pays who participate in
SkillBridge will be treated as if they are on separation leave or long term
TDY with respect to continued eligibility for S and I pays. If the policy
for a particular S and I pay requires payments to stop when the member is on
long term TDY or separation leave, commands must take action to stop the
applicable S and I pay. For those S and I pays not required by policy to
stop for long term TDY or separation leave, COs will carefully consider the
impact to mission readiness due to the loss of the critical skill in question
before approving SkillBridge. In line with reference (f), S and I pays are
directly tied to incentivizing retention of critical skills for Navy
missions, therefor COs are empowered to disapprove SkillBridge requests if
they feel that allowing a Sailor to receive S and I pay during SkillBridge
participation would inappropriately impact readiness.
8. Registration Procedures:
a. To ensure accurate record keeping, effective immediately, any Sailor
intending to participate in SkillBridge shall register with the OPNAV
SkillBridge Registrar up to 365 days before expected date of separation.
This shall be completed via encrypted email from the Sailor to the address in
paragraph 11, with their command career counselor carbon copied. Email must
include the Sailors name, rate/designator, paygrade, name of the SkillBridge
provider, as well as type of program (e.g. internship, skills training, or
apprenticeship), location and desired dates of the program.
b. The OPNAV SkillBridge Registrar will record the Sailors intent to
participate and respond to the Sailor and the command career counselor via
email. This acknowledgement shall then be routed to the CO with the Sailors
request to participate.
c. COs may only approve SkillBridge requests from Sailors possessing
acknowledgement of registration from the OPNAV SkillBridge Registrar.
9. Upon CO approval of a registered SkillBridge participant, the command
will enter the Sailor into Fleet Training, Management and Planning System to
record SkillBridge participation as early as possible. Course identification
numbers for SkillBridge are S-3A-060 for programs between 1 and 60 days, S-
3A-0120 for courses between 61 and 120 days and S-3A-0180 for courses between
121 and 180 days. Commands must enter the date the Sailors SkillBridge
program begins in the completion date field. The command should notify the
OPNAV SkillBridge Registrar of any registered Sailor who was disapproved so
that they can be removed from the database.
10. Use of travel funds to participate in SkillBridge is not authorized.
Shipment of household goods is only permitted upon receipt of separation
orders.
11. Direct all questions regarding SkillBridge policy to
navy_skillbridge.fct(at)navy.mil or by phone at (703)604-5310.
12. This message will remain in effect until superseded or canceled,
whichever occurs first.

RMKS/1. This naval message provides information and updates on the Navys
participation in the Defense Attache Service (DAS) for Navy personnel.
2. The Navy looks to its most qualified and capable officers and enlisted
personnel to fill demanding and rewarding positions as Senior Defense
Officials/Defense Attaches, Naval Attaches, Assistant Naval Attaches,
Operations Coordinators and Operations Assistants in exotic and unique
locations. They will serve as a part of the U.S. Defense Attache Office
team, based at U.S. Embassies in 78 countries. All candidates are trained at
the Defense Intelligence Agency’s (DIA) 13-week Joint Military Attache
School, and depending on their assigned country, extensive language training
may be provided prior to arriving on station. Naval Attaches are the voice
of the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) and Chief of Naval Operations,
articulating policies as well as Navy strategy to a host nation. Naval
Attaches observe and report information to reduce strategic surprise, and
call attention to issues that will affect U.S. interests in time for decision
makers to act. Naval Attaches have provided observations that have been
briefed at the highest levels of government. Our Naval Attaches build
strong, lasting relationships with partners who share a common vision of
maritime security. As part of the U.S. Embassy country team and in support
of the Ambassadors objectives, Naval Attaches play a critical role in
enhancing relationships in host nations which are not traditional or long-
time partners.
3. SECNAV considers the Navy’s contribution to the DAS as one of his most
critical responsibilities, as expanded upon in references (a) and (b). For
Naval Attaches, SECNAV is the final approval authority for officers nominated
to serve in the DAS under DIA. The Director of Naval Intelligence manages
the day-to-day operation of the Navy Attache Program as detailed in reference
(c).
4. For those who meet the selection criteria of reference (d), service in
the DAS offers unique opportunities for the best and most highly qualified
Navy personnel. Through a robust, competitive selection and training
process, service members and their families will ultimately be posted at U.S.
Embassies around the world in one of more than 150 DAS positions.
a. Over the next year, Navy Attache Affairs will screen for attache
positions in: Albania, Australia, Azerbaijan, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burma,
Cameroon, Chile, China, Djibouti, Ecuador, Egypt, Fiji, France, Germany,
Greece, Honduras, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Kenya,
Madagascar, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Panama, Philippines,
Poland, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Tunisia, United Arab
Emirates, Ukraine, and United Kingdom.
b. In addition, exceptional Limited Duty Officer/Chief Warrant Officer
and enlisted personnel will be able to screen as Operations Coordinators
(OPSCO) and Operations Assistants (OPSAsst) positions in: Australia, China,
Djibouti, Egypt, Iraq, Malaysia, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, United
Kingdom, Uruguay, and Vietnam.
5. To demonstrate the importance SECNAV places on duty at DAOs, as discussed
in reference (a), procedures are in place at Navy Personnel Command (NPC) to
expand the eligibility for DAS assignments. Active promotion and advertising
of the program has been implemented and NPC is working to further incentivize
and reward DAS service through statutory promotion board
precepts. Additionally, these tours frequently offer language training,
Foreign Language Proficiency Pay, and Special Duty Assignment Pay for
enlisted personnel.
6. For additional information about these exceptional opportunities visit

CNO Navigation Plan – 2022 Update
ROUTINE R 261901Z JUL 22 MID200080057348U FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 168/22 MSGID/NAVADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/CNO/JUL// SUBJ//NAVPLAN 2022// RMKS/1. Shipmates, I am proud to announce the release of Navigation Plan 2022. This document surveys the state of our Navy and provides direction on our future. Navigation Plan 2022 builds upon the solid foundation set by last year's NAVPLAN and takes into account three significant developments. 2. First, earlier this year, the Secretary of Defense released the 2022 National Defense Strategy (NDS), which sets out how the Department of Defense (DoD) will contribute to advancing and safeguarding U.S. national interests. The NDS is clear about the formidable challenges our adversaries pose to the international rules-based order, as evidenced by China's and Russia's blatant attempts to reshape the security environment to their advantage. In response to these challenges, the NDS introduces "integrated deterrence" as a unifying principle for the DoD. Additionally, the NDS identifies "campaigning" and "building enduring advantages" as the additional ways through which we will achieve our Nation's goals. In support of these ways, the NDS calls for updated operational concepts, including the Joint Warfighting Concept (JWC), to align capabilities and missions across the Services. Our Navy plays a unique and critical role in supporting the NDS: a ready, combat-credible, forward deployed fleet is the most potent, flexible, and versatile instrument of military power. Nested under the Secretary of the Navy's Strategic Guidance and the Tri-Service Maritime Strategy, Navigation Plan 2022 outlines how we will continue adapting to the security environment in order to fulfill our singular role as part of the Joint Force defending our Nation. 3. Second, Navigation Plan 2022 accounts for the progress we have made and what we have learned as a result of the NAVPLAN Implementation Framework (NIF). The NIF has accelerated our progress in 18 separate focus areas, but we still have much work to do. To continue delivering the outcomes called for in the NIF, Navigation Plan 2022 identifies a supported commander for each objective, promoting alignment, accountability, coordination, and collaboration. We have made significant progress this past year, breaking through stovepipes and turning priorities into tangible action. However, we must accelerate key capabilities, such as our ability to shoot, maneuver, defend, and resupply, while building momentum in additional critical areas, including: live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) training, the Naval Operational Architecture, artificial intelligence, and unmanned systems. 4. Third, Navigation Plan 2022 directs necessary course corrections to the design of our future force. Six overarching Force Design Imperatives-- Distance, Deception, Defense, Distribution, Delivery, and Decision Advantage- -will guide the development of our naval capabilities and enable us to employ our warfighting concepts. These imperatives will feed an "engine" of strategy that will better inform our budget choices-leveraging wargaming, analysis, research, experimentation, and disruptive technology. The Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Warfighting Development (OPNAV N7) will become the supported commander responsible for developing, maintaining, and refining the Navy's Force Design vision. A collaborative, continuous, and iterative Force Design process will energize our modernization efforts and help us maintain our maritime advantage in this critical decade and beyond. 5. Ultimately, Navigation Plan 2022 reflects the Get Real, Get Better call to action we are now adopting throughout our Navy. The rapidly increasing capabilities of our adversaries and their demonstrated intent to threaten our national interests demand that we focus on continuous improvement. We must courageously self-assess, deliberately self-correct, and continuously learn. Navigation Plan 2022 acknowledges identified shortcomings and barriers to our future progress, while charting the path forward to overcome them. 6. Everything in Navigation Plan 2022 supports our four overarching priorities: Readiness, Capabilities, Capacity, and Sailors. We must maintain readiness, keeping combat-credible forces forward in order to protect the free and open system underpinning American security and prosperity. We must possess capabilities to deter war and, if needed, win in conflict. We must build capacity that will enable us to deliver sea control and project power. And we must lead, train, and equip our Sailors to out-think and out-fight any adversary. 7. I expect all Navy leaders to read Navigation Plan 2022, which is available on the Navy.mil website (https://www.navy.mil/Leadership/Chief-of-Naval-Operations/). Each one of us has an important role to play, and our success depends on executing this Navigation Plan as a team. 8.
