SOLICITATIONS
1. The Reserve Personnel Management (RPM) Division provides 
counseling sessions through the Reserve Personnel Career Counseling 
(RPCC) system. 
2. The RPCC provides career management counseling to all Reserve 
personnel with special emphasis on career decisions, assignment 
competitiveness, promotions and advancements.  
3. The RPCC system consists of three lines of effort which 
effectively communicate career management and recommendations 
based on the environment and current trends of the Reserve force.  
These lines of effort are:
    a. The RPCC Guide,
    b. RPM Roadshows, outlined in REF A, and,
    c. Individual Reserve Personnel Career Counseling sessions.
4. The RPCC Guide provides Reserve Personnel an easily accessible 
reference to better understand the assignment and selection 
processes, in an effort to improve assignment competitiveness, 
career progression, and ultimately make informed decisions.  
The RPCC guide provides a broad overview of a successful career 
path, based upon known assignment, retention, promotion and 
advancement actions. The RPCC Guide is accessible on the RPM-2 
web site at https://www.dcms.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant
-Commandant-for-Human-Resources-CG-1/Personnel-Service-Center-PSC
/Reserve-Personnel-Management-PSC-RPM/RPM-2/RPCC/.
5. Individual Reserve Personnel Career Counseling sessions are 
interactive discussions normally conducted via telephone.  These 
individually tailored sessions include a joint review of the 
member’s Employee Summary Sheet and Electronic Individual Personal
Data Record (EI-PDR), a discussion of career paths, a review of
the assignment process, and recommendations for future assignments
and professional development opportunities to improve competitiveness.  
    a. Reserve members are required to read the RPCC Guide 
sections pertinent to them before requesting an Individual RPCC session.
    b. Although not required, it maybe helpful for members to
obtain a copy of their EI-PDR via the Personnel Service Center-
Business Operations Division prior to the counseling session:  
https://www.dcms.uscg.mil/Our-Organization/Assistant-Commandant-for-
Human-Resources-CG-1/Personnel-Service-Center-PSC/BOPS/PSC-BOPS-C/
PSC-BOPS-C-MR/PSC-BOPS-C-MR_PDR/. Reserve members are highly 
encouraged to review their record and have any questions or concerns
ready for discussion during the counseling session. Please note 
the typical time needed for EI-PDR delivery is three to six weeks.
    c. Members requesting an Individual RPCC session should 
email HQS-DG-CGPSC-RPM-RPCC@uscg.mil with tentative dates and times 
of availability.  RPM will reply and establish a firm appointment 
that meets the member's schedule, even if after-hours or weekends.
    d. Access to a Coast Guard standard workstation is not 
required for these sessions if the member has a copy of their 
EI-PDR and Employee Summary Sheet. However, if the member 
schedules an appointment with access to a standard workstation,
RPM can use the Skype for Business application if necessary.
6. The target audience for the RPCC system are junior officers 
(O4 and below), CWOs, Senior Enlisted (E7 to E9) and junior enlisted
