What is Career Waypoints (C-WAY)? Career Waypoints is a management and force management tool that uses performance criteria within individual ratings and Year Groups (YG) to ensure long term sustainment throughout our Navy. C-WAY provides a mechanism for matching personnel inventory to requirements with the best performing Sailors. Who is affected by C-WAY? C-WAY applies to all reenlistment eligible Active Component and Full Time Support Sailors E3-E6 (excluding CPO Selectees) with 14 years or less of contract time from Active Duty Service Date (ADSD) to Expiration of Active Obligated Service as Extended (SEAOS). Why is C-WAY needed? The Navy continually adjusts the number of Sailors needed in each rating to meet current and future mission requirements. Career Waypoints provides an opportunity to retain the best performers in each rating. C-WAY also allows Sailors to consider converting into a new rating or into the Navy Reserve as an option to remain in the Navy.
