Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act (DAWIA) – Certification Roadmap

There are seven career fields within the DOD acquisition workforce, all of which carry certification and have required training for entry. BMRA offers the certification courses required for career field entry as a contracting professional.

DAWIA certification is only available to DOD employees, military, and civilians assigned to an acquisition coded position, as well as select military officers whose career development will include assignment to acquisition coded positions. Reference DOD career fields for specific details on how to achieve your DAWIA certification.
