Special Qualification Identifiers and Additional Skill
Identifiers
12–1. SQI and ASI
a. SQIs are authorized for use with any MOS and skill level
character, unless otherwise specified, to identify special requirements
(see AR 611-1).
b. ASI identify specialized skills, qualifications, and requirements
that age closely related to and are in addition to those inherent to
the MOS. ASIs are authorized for use only with designated MOS
and will be listed in each specification for such MOS. Area aptitude
scores for an ASI will be no more restrictive than the associated
MOS, unless an exception to policy is approved by DA ODCSPER.
c . A S I a r e p r i m a r i l y u s e d t o i d e n t i f y s k i l l s r e q u i r i n g f o r m a l
school training or civilian certification. Specialized skills identified
by the ASI include operation and maintenance of specific weapon
systems andsubsystems, computer programming languages, procedures,
analytical methods, animal handling techniques, and similar
required skills that are too restrictive in scope to make up an MOS.
d. ASI may be used to identify specialized qualifications and
requirements that do not follow the MOS management system. Specialized
qualifications andrequirements identified by ASI include
security and operational requirements (see AR 611-1).
e. A complete list of SQIs and ASIs are provided in tables 12-1
and 12-2, respectively.
12–2. SQI code
a. The required course(s) will be included in the SQI qualifications
as follows:
(1) The course title and location will be listed if mandatory
training at the service school is the only means of qualifying.
(2) If credit for the course can be obtained by correspondence
study or other formalized training, the SQI qualifications will reflect
only the course title.
DA PAM 611–21 • 31 March 1999
b. Procedures for award and withdrawal of SQI codes are contained
in AR 600-200.
c. Guidance on use of SQI codes in authorization documents is
contained in AR 71-14.
12–3. ASI Code
The required course(s) will be included in the ASI qualifications as
follows:
a. The course title and location will be listed if mandatory training
at the service school is the only means of qualifying.
b. If the credit for the course can be obtained by correspondence
course or other formalized training, the ASI qualifications will reflect
only the course title.
12–4. MOS authorized use of ASI Y1—Transition
The ASI Y1 is used for transitory identification of personnel who
have completed transition-type training on late models of existing
equipment. Training must be of sufficient criticality to require establishment
of service school transition training or comparable formal
training in an organized training activity. The ASI “Y1” also will
i d e n t i f y p o s i t i o n s i n a u t h o r i z a t i o n d o c u m e n t s r e q u i r i n g t r a n s i t i o n
trained soldiers (see table 12-3).
a. The use of Y1 must be according to Department of the Army
authority contained in Section III—MOS Authorized Use of ASI
Y1—Transition. Requestfor additional authorized uses will be submitted
through appropriate channels to CG, PERSCOM, DCSOPS,
ATTN: TAPC-PLC, Room 3N65, 200 Stovall Street, Alexandria,
VA 22332-0406. The request will include:
(1) Duties involved (details of what, how, when and why) and
how they differ from duties performed by personnel classified in the
MOS.
(2) Minimum skills and knowledge required (details of technique,
abilities, degree of proficiency, or other characteristics) and how
they are unique when compared with skills and knowledge possessed
by personnel classified in the MOS.
