GENERAL INFORMATION:

Qualified candidates will be assigned to one of three quality levels based on the degree to which their competencies meet the duties required. For the purpose of the Career Transition Assistance Program (CTAP) and the Interagency Career Transition Assistance Program (ICTAP), candidates rated in the top quality level are considered well-qualified.

Federal employees seeking CTAP/ICTAP consideration must indicate their eligibility when applying for a position.

This includes a copy of the agency notice, a copy of their most recent Performance Rating and a copy of their most recent SF-50 noting current position, grade level, and duty location.
