Budget Analyst

To be eligible at the GS-11 level, you must meet one year of specialized experience equivalent to the GS-09 level in the Federal service as defined below; or a Ph.D., equivalent doctorate degree, or three full years of progressively higher-level graduate education in a related field (e.g. Accounting, Financial Management, Public Administration, Business Administration); or a combination of experience and education. Specialized experience is defined as formulating, presenting, advising and executing the budget overseeing financial management operations; tracking funds, and composing a variety of budgetary reports using automated financial systems and databases for developing statistical reports and management use. Combining Education and Experience: A combination of experience and graduate level education can be used if, when combined, are equivalent to 100% of the qualification requirement. Only graduate level education in excess of the first two years can be used in this calculation. To calculate your percentage of graduate education, first determine the total number of graduate level hours that exceed 36 semester hours (or your school’s definition of two years of graduate study), then divide the total number of your excess graduate semester hours by 18 (or your school’s definition of one year of graduate study). To calculate your percentage of specialized experience, divide the total number of months of qualifying experience by 12. Now add the two percentages together. The sum of the percentages must equal at least 100%.
