Management Analyst

To qualify for a Management and Program Analyst your resume and supporting documentation must support:

A. Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience that equipped you with the particular competencies to
successfully perform the duties of the position, and that is typically in or related to the position to be filled. To qualify
at the GS-09 level, applicants must possess one year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-07 level or
equivalent under other pay systems in the Federal service, military or private sector. To qualify at the GS-11 level,
applicants must possess one year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-09 level or equivalent under other
pay systems in the Federal service, military or private sector. Applicants must meet eligibility requirements including minimum qualifications,
and any other regulatory requirements by the cut-off/closing date of the announcement. Creditable specialized
experience includes:

GS-09:

• Modifying or developing new administrative program policies, goals, or objectives for the organization.
• Evaluating the organization's procedures regarding system of records, communications, files, forms, and other documentation and identifying potential issues and recommending solutions.
• Monitoring the organization's training programs.
• Aligning an organization's fiscal year operational budget.

GS-11:

• Developing management and/or program evaluation plans, procedures, and methodology for assigned programs.
• Conducting studies of employee and/or organizational efficiencies and productivity and recommending changes or improvements in the organization, staffing levels, and work methods.
• Advising on the distribution of work among positions and organizations and the appropriate staffing levels and skills mix.
• Monitoring and reporting on an organization's funding and staffing levels to ensure that targets are never exceeded.

B. Education Substitution: Such education must demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the
work. Education must be from a college or university accredited by an organization approved by the U.S.
Department of Education. See http://ope.ed.gov/accreditation/Search.aspx. If using education to meet basic
qualifications, YOU MUST SUBMIT A TRANSCRIPT as supplemental documentation. To qualify based on
education in lieu of specialized experience, you must possess:

GS-09: a master's or equivalent graduate degree or 2 full years of progressively higher level graduate
education leading to such a degree LL.B. or J.D., if related.

GS-11: a Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree or three (3) full academic years of progressively higher level
graduate education leading to such a degree or LL.M. if related.

C. Combination: Combinations of successfully completed post-high school education and experience may be used to
meet total qualification requirements for grade levels GS-09 and GS-11, and may be computed by first determining
the applicant's total qualifying experience as a percentage of the experience required for the grade level; then
determining the applicant's education as a percentage of the education required for the grade level; and then adding
the two percentages. The total percentages must equal at least 100 percent to qualify an applicant for that grade
level. Only graduate education in excess of the amount required for the next lower grade level may be used to
qualify applicants for positions at grade GS-09 and GS-11.

Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional, philanthropic, religious, spiritual, community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.
