Navy Retention and Career Development Program
OPNAV INSTRUCTION 1040.11BA - The program delineated in this instruction will improve
the ability of our Sailors to achieve their professional goals and will positively impact their
desire to remain on active duty beyond their current enlistment or to join the Naval Reserve.
Active involvement of the chain of command from the top down is the key element to a
successful Career Development Program, and will provide the guidance each Sailor needs to
meet the objectives of all five vectors in the newly evolving Sailor Continuum.
