• Professional Development: Attend in-person and virtual professional development opportunities throughout the year.


• Non-Competitive Eligibility: NCE is a special hiring status that enables you to apply for federal jobs without having to go through the standard public competitive selection process. That means that you can be appointed to federal positions that may not be available to the general public. In addition, your application could be processed faster than others after completing one year of service.


• Leave: As an AmeriCorps member serving in the VISTA program, you are entitled to personal leave, medical leave, and leave for holidays recognized by your sponsoring organization. Family leave and emergency leave are also available in certain situations. Military service and jury duty can also necessitate a leave of absence, and both are covered.

• Counting Service toward Federal Leave & Retirement: If you are hired into the federal civil service, your time as an AmeriCorps member with the VISTA program will be credited toward a pension in the Federal Employees Retirement System as long as you pay a portion of your retirement contribution.

An AmeriCorps service year with the VISTA program is credited in the same manner as a year of traditional federal government employment. Your service will apply toward purposes of determining seniority, reduction in force and layoff rights, leave entitlement, and other rights and privileges based on length of service under laws establishing terms and conditions of service of federal civilian employees.
