        ISSUE/ITEM:

        SUBJECT: On-The-Job Training (OJT) Records

       BACKGROUND: Transport of OJT records to the employment site is required for TDYs
       in excess of 30 days. Transport of CDCs is optional.

       DISCUSSION: Numerous recommendations to eliminate this requirement have been
       received by this office. The recommendations are based on the following
       rationale:

                              (1) OJT records are not required. Formal OJT is not a high
       priority in the initial stages of contingency operations.

                               (2) OJT records could very easily become lost, presenting
       significant individual problems.

       ACTION RECOMMENDED:

                  (1) Delete requirement for transport of OJT records from AFR 28-4.

                   (2) Direct that OJT completed at the employment site be documented
       on AF Form 1098, for inclusion into the OJT record upon return to home station.
