Protect our Land, Ascend with Us!
Ascension is seeking a mission-focused Aviation Training Program Analyst to support the U.S. Coast Guard Liaison Office in Pensacola, Florida. This role supports Coast Guard Aviation Production Planning, student control administration, aviation training data management, and reporting for Coast Guard flight students progressing through Navy and Air Force flight training pipelines.
The ideal candidate understands the importance of accurate student tracking, timely coordination, training documentation, and performance monitoring in a military aviation training environment. This position is important because the Coast Guard Liaison Office supports the development and progression of Coast Guard aviation candidates through a demanding multi-year training program, helping ensure students are properly tracked, supported, documented, and prepared for Coast Guard aviation service.
The Government is specifically seeking a Program/Management Analyst to support Coast Guard aviation production planning, CGAPP, training database management, student control, student progress monitoring, performance management, OER/EER workflow input, directive management, and training documentation support.
Summary of the Contractor Role
The Aviation Training Program Analyst will provide day-to-day program, training, administrative, data, and liaison support to the Coast Guard Liaison Office. The role requires a detail-oriented, organized, and self-driven professional who can work independently, manage multiple priorities, identify training delays, coordinate with military and civilian stakeholders, and maintain accurate student training information.
The contractor will support Coast Guard Aviation Production Planning programs, including introductory, primary, rotary, and fixed-wing flight training. The position will use training and student management systems such as CGAPP, NIPDR, and TSHARP to track student progress, support reporting, analyze performance trends, maintain rosters, coordinate class assignments, and support leadership decision-making. The analyst must be comfortable working in a structured military training environment where accuracy, timeliness, discretion, and professional communication are essential.
This position also supports student control processes, aviation training jacket documentation, student recall and transfer rosters, OER/EER workflow coordination, and compliance with applicable Coast Guard, Navy, CNATRA, NASC, and FORCECOM procedures. The solicitation emphasizes that key personnel with highly relevant, recent experience and minimal training time on government systems and procedures will be viewed more favorably.
