A limit on Associates?

not to add insult to injury about Army against Air Force... but Air University is going to be changing the CCAF in the future.. It will first become a Air University degree and eventually it will be a opportunity to be a BA instead of a AA degree.

Its a good thing for future enlistee's. I will never see it.

Really? Good for the USAF. Such a move is hardly surprising considering the Army's historical educational lag behind the USAF.

One of the service publications recently mentioned a senior Army general voicing his dismay with the current transferability of various Army specialties (MOS) to degree plans. The general went on to say that he had ordered a study to equate the combat arms jobs more with civilian education.

Although a large number of technical MOS are awarded numerous credits by ACE, combat arms (infantry, artillery, armor, air defense, combat engineers) sorely lag behind the others. If I'm not mistaken, these five enlisted career fields contain a sizable percentage of the Army's soldiers.

As far as listing associates with bachelors on a resume is concerned, depending on the job sought, I usually list all. My job search dance was experienced earlier this year. A couple HR people appeared impressed with the notion that someone would expand their horizons in the form of multiple, lower-level undergrad degrees. Out of 80 resumes submitted, my conversion ratio for interviews was roughly 1:4.
