If I decide to complete my service obligation as a civilian employee, what kind of permanent job will I get if I successfully complete the Information Assurance Scholarship Program?
The kinds of permanent jobs available to you on successful completion of the Information Assurance Scholarship Program will depend on your academic background and experience, and the specific needs of the DoD agency that will employ you. Position assignments for personnel with IA backgrounds may be in such areas as Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) operations; system/network administration; computer network security architecture and engineering; research and development; modeling and simulation; system certification and information technology acquisition, to name a few. However, while you are guaranteed a permanent position on satisfactory completion of the program, you are not guaranteed any particular kind of job, grade level, appointment type, or tenure category. You should inquire of agency officials about any plans for your permanent placement when you are tentatively offered appointment.
