Phase Seven: Support
Ask Yourself: How do I make a smooth transition to a new career?
For your transition to be truly successful, you should manage the personal affairs side of
your career change with the same professionalism and care as your job search. Things like
out-processing, relocation, financial management, taking care of your family, and coping with the
inevitable stress are important too.
Your Transition Assistance Office can offer support as you go through this process. In
addition your ITP provides an opportunity to integrate these issues with the career-oriented
activities that are the central focus of your transition effort.
Note: You are eligible for continued transition assistance for up to 180 days
after separation.
