[quote=Anonymous]I've been a Contacting Officer for nearly a decade and am now seeking a career change. A number of colleagues have moved to the program management side of things (many have become CORs). Several people have moved to the private sector and have been managing staffing requirements. I've been told that experience as a CO is quite valuable, but it seems that there aren't many related fields. The 1102 series has become more automated with the utilization of GWACs. The field has also become more admin-heavy with an abundance of reporting requirements and other admin-related duties. I expect the work to change dramatically in the next 10 years. Matter of fact, most 1102s perform tasks that were once done by 1105s (Purchasing Agents). My question is what can one do with a background as an 1102 if they don't want to remain with the government? [/quote]
