Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Isn't AFCOMAP just for minority officers?
A: The perception of many officers--African American, Caucasian and others--is that AFCOMAP
is strictly for African American officers. This is not true. AFCOMAP’s stated purpose (see
Constitution) is for the professional development and mentoring of all officers. However, it does
also focus on recruiting, mentoring, and retention of minority officers.

Q: Isn't AFCOMAP just like the CGOC?
A: Another widely held perception is that AFCOMAP is redundant to CGOC. This is incorrect on
two major levels. CGOC, as stated in the name, is strictly for company grade officers. As such, it
primarily provides opportunities for peer networking. AFCOMAP is specifically geared toward
senior/junior, one-on-one mentoring and professionalism across many disciplines for the
development of all officers and officer candidates.

Q: How do I order AFCOMAP Coins for my chapter?
