00:04.739 --> 00:06.961
The CCAF , the Community College of the

00:06.961 --> 00:09.729
United States Air Force is a regionally

00:09.739 --> 00:11.739
accredited institution . So the Air

00:11.739 --> 00:13.961
Force is unique in the fact that it has

00:13.961 --> 00:15.906
its own community college awarding

00:15.906 --> 00:18.090
degree based on military training and

00:18.100 --> 00:20.044
uh a combination of those training

00:20.044 --> 00:22.329
credits with college level coursework .

00:22.909 --> 00:25.120
The CCF degree is an associate of

00:25.129 --> 00:27.296
applied Science that uses some of that

00:27.296 --> 00:29.129
technical skill to help award an

00:29.129 --> 00:31.750
academic degree . So folks think that

00:31.760 --> 00:33.927
it'll help with their E PBS and that's

00:33.927 --> 00:36.610
absolutely true . But outside of just

00:36.619 --> 00:38.730
the military context , it holds a lot

00:38.730 --> 00:40.841
of value for their career progression

00:40.841 --> 00:43.063
later . So for example , when folks are

00:43.069 --> 00:45.090
separating or retiring and they're

00:45.099 --> 00:47.155
applying to certain jobs , a minimum

00:47.155 --> 00:49.377
criteria may be awarded degree and that

00:49.377 --> 00:52.060
CCAF checks that box , the CCF is

00:52.069 --> 00:55.540
awarding military college credit based

00:55.549 --> 00:57.660
on the formal training you do at your

00:57.660 --> 01:01.430
tech school during BMT doing PM ES and

01:01.439 --> 01:03.383
upgrade training . So all of those

01:03.383 --> 01:05.439
things are giving you college credit

01:05.439 --> 01:07.439
for a lot of people . They may only

01:07.439 --> 01:09.272
need to complete the five gen ed

01:09.272 --> 01:11.439
requirements . That's speech English ,

01:11.439 --> 01:14.129
math , social Science and to get their

01:14.139 --> 01:16.589
CCAF degree awarded . And we have a lot

01:16.599 --> 01:19.010
of folks who wait and they don't

01:19.019 --> 01:21.849
complete it right away who are super

01:21.860 --> 01:24.027
close to being done if they would just

01:24.027 --> 01:25.910
take those five as tests at our

01:25.919 --> 01:27.919
National Test Center here at the Ed

01:27.919 --> 01:29.919
Center or take five college classes

01:29.919 --> 01:32.086
funded by T A completely free . No out

01:32.086 --> 01:34.252
of pocket . There's a lot of easy ways

01:34.252 --> 01:36.419
to get your CCAF done . They just need

01:36.419 --> 01:37.830
to come to us and get the ball rolling .
