Lewiston High School Air Force JROTC Hiring Information

Aerospace Science Instructor (ASI)

Who may apply for the ASI position?

Air Force Noncommissioned Officers (NCO's) in the grades of TSgt thru CMSgt who meet the following prerequisites may apply:
Hold a minimum of a Bachelor's degree, permanently retired 5 years or less (may be waivered) from the effective date of employment, meet DODI/AFJROTCI weight/body fat standards (26% for males/36% for females), possess high standards of military bearing, appearance, and moral character. NCOs still on active duty may apply when they have an approved retirement date. Desirable qualifications: experience in supply, administration, drill and ceremonies, classroom teaching, and working with youth groups.

Effective under the FY 2007 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), "Gray-Area" Guard and Reserve members who retire with a minimum of 20 "good years of service," but ineligible to draw their military retirement until age 60, may apply for the ASI position and would be subject to a Minimum Instructor Pay (MIP) formula established by AFJROTC.

JOB DESCRIPTION

In the context of Air Force Junior ROTC program operations, the ASI is supervised by the Senior Aerospace Science Instructor (SASI). In most units, they are responsible for the Leadership Education portion of the curriculum. This includes drill and ceremonies, principles of leadership and management, and communication skills. They assist the SASI in teaching Aerospace Science, particularly those areas where they have special competence because of their experience and training.

They may give or grade tests, give career and performance counseling, and supervise cadet corps activities. They are also involved in the enrollment and co-curricular activities. Typically, the ASIs are appointed Military Property Custodians and are responsible for uniforms and equipment and for other administrative matters. They wear their Air Force uniform while performing Air Force Junior ROTC duties. The instructors, although not on active duty, are still working in and managing a military-type unit.

The same NCO-officer, subordinate-supervisor relationship which existed on active duty must be maintained in the Air Force Junior ROTC unit. Only those NCOs who can support the objectives of Air Force Junior ROTC and give their full loyalty, support, and cooperation to the SASI in achieving goals should apply. For further information, refer to AFJROTCI 36-2010, Air Force Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps.
