SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
National Geospatial Intelligence
Agency (NGA) is below parity with the
Relevant Civilian Labor Force
representation for many mission critical
occupations. The Agency’s Directorate
of Human Development identifies the
job skills that will be needed in our
current and future workforce. NGA has
a broad mission and has employees
located throughout the country and
world. As a result, it requires a
multitude of job skills and employee
backgrounds. The customers who
transact business with the Agency bring
with them a wide variety of
backgrounds, cultures, and experiences.
A diverse workforce enables the Agency
to provide a measure of understanding
to its customers by relating to the
diverse background of those customers.
By including employees of all
backgrounds, all NGA employees gain a
measure of knowledge, background, and
experience that are beneficial in serving
the agency’s customers.
In order to determine if there are
barriers in our recruitment and selection
processes, we must rank the
demographic groups that apply for our
jobs. There is no other statistically valid

method to make these determinations,
and no source of this information other
than directly from applicants. The data
collected is not provided to selecting
officials and plays no part in the merit

data collected will be used in summary
form to determine trends covering the
demographic make-up of applicant
pools and job selections within a given
occupation or organizational group. The
records of those applicants not selected
are destroyed in accordance with the
agency’s records management process.
