In an attempt to increase the number of Community College of the Air Force graduates on Air Force Materiel Command bases, command officials rolled out a plan entitled "Year of the Community College of the Air Force" Jan. 1, 2011.

Chief Master Sgt. Eric Jaren, AFMC command chief, says that the YoCCAF campaign could increase CCAF degree completions to 50 percent of eligible Airmen over the next three years.

Each AFMC base will set up a program committee to identify eligible Airmen, pair them with mentors and track progress. Bases will also appoint Secretaries of Education, who will work with their education office and disseminate information to mentors.

The program focuses on Airmen who have completed their career development courses and are in the grades of E-4 through E-7.   Full story
