Is there a Career Map tool on RallyPoint?

Is there a feature to create a career map on RallyPoint? I have mine on a spreadsheet but would like to see an interactive career map on here. What are your thoughts?

Outside of the career maps provided by each proponent, the most interactive version would be what you find on Army Career Tracker. It isn't perfect, but it is getting better. Of course one of the biggest problems is that it requires CAC access. Availability on here could be useful.

1LT Private RallyPoint Member As a 2LT you should be worried about establishing yourself as a junior officer, once you have that down worry about a career. Without nailing the basics, you will have no career!

Since you are the good idea ferry, you will build it for us!

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but it would take a lot more coding to incorporate that into Rally Point than it would be worth I think. Everyone will want to use a different format (such as your spreadsheet).

BUT perhaps a field with your next duty station "wish" or "goal" would be a nice addition to the profile? Maybe allow 3 choices in ranked order. Coding for something like that would be a lot simpler.

Best thing I've seen is the tracker on the ACT from AKO

I depends on the branch you are in. The difference in career paths can vary dramatically from REMF units vs. Combat Arms units.
