In September 2013, William announced that after seven years in the service, he would be retiring from his job with the Royal Air Force to focus full-time on his charity work and royal responsibilities.

Per the palace, William plans to work closely with the Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry and in particular, "expand his work in the field of conservation, particularly in respect to endangered species."

Clearly, he wants to gain as much knowledge as possible to help him with this work.
