Rear Admiral Greg Rothrock, U.S. Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM) Director of Force Development (J7) signed a memorandum at U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) headquarters at Fort Eisenhower, Ga., Feb. 27, 2025, establishing the Army Cyber Warfare Technician Military Occupational Specialty (MOS 170A) Warrant Officer Basic Course (WOBC) as an approved Alternate Training Solution (ATS) for Host Analyst work roles. ARCYBER officials said the memorandum applies to WOBC completed after January 2023.
The agreement streamlines training by removing the requirement for 170A warrant officers to complete additional pipeline training to be certified in those work roles.
The move expands on a similar agreement signed on Oct. 30, 2024, that established the Army Cyber Operations Specialist MOS (MOS 17C) Advanced Individual Training as an ATS for the Host and Network Analyst work roles.
“ARCYBER is collaborating with the U.S. Army Cyber and Electromagnetic School and USCYBERCOM J7 to broaden the ATS for other work roles,” said Sgt. Maj. Jesse Potter of the ARCYBER Operations Directorate (G3). “This expansion, already underway for MOS 170A (Network Analysts), will be extended to MOS 17A (Host and Network Analysts), MOS 17C, and MOS 170A (Digital Network Exploitation Analysts) in the coming months. Leveraging USCYBERCOM's authority, we are committed to maximizing this initiative and enhancing training opportunities across these critical cyber specialties."
USCYBERCOM officials said the memo and agreements signed with other services underscores collaborative efforts the command and the services to improve and strengthen training by establishing a foundation for leveraging shared training capabilities.
