2. The Commanding Officer's recommendation for advancement (Ready) must
be maintained for the period from recommendation to advancement.  In
addition, E-7, E-8, and E-9 candidates must not have an unsatisfactory
conduct mark on an enlisted evaluation for 24 months prior to the
terminal eligibility date.  Personnel failing to maintain the CO's
recommendation (Ready) for this period shall be invalidated from the
Servicewide Exam in which they participated. Personnel who have been
invalidated must be recommended and qualify again through a new SWE
competition.
3. Commanding Officers shall determine if advancement eligibility
requirements for the authorized grade have been met. Per Ref B,
specific changes and instructions for EPQs and RPQs are now captured in
a semi-annual memo approved by FORCECOM Training Division at
http://cglink.uscg.mil/320dcb99. If appropriate, a CO shall withhold or
cancel the advancement of ineligible personnel per Article 3.A.20,
3.A.26.f or 4.D.3 of Ref A. When advancement is to be withheld or
cancelled, the CO shall advise PPC (ADV) by e-mail via AOIX at CMD-SMB-
CG-PPC with CG PSC as information addressee at CMD-SMB-CG-PSC. Please
note C2OIX does not transfer to AOIX. See CG PSC-EPM Portal site at
https://cg.portal.uscg.mil/units/psc/psc-
epm/SitePages/Advancements.aspx for additional guidance.
4. Per Ref D, the requirement for all E-6 members to attend the Chief
Petty Officer Academy (CPOACAD) prior to advancement to Chief Petty
Officer is temporarily suspended. Members must attend CPOACAD prior to
advancement to Senior Chief Petty Officer. Members must have
successfully completed the Senior Enlisted Leadership Course (SELC)
prior to advancement to Master Chief Petty Officer. COMDT (CG-128) is
the Program Manager for the enlisted leadership continuum and the
single point of contact for all requests for CPOACAD and SELC waivers
from advancement policy.
5. Per Article 3.A.10 of Ref A, personnel in certain ratings must meet
security clearance requirements for advancement.
6. Commanding Officers shall ensure personnel advancing to pay grades
E-7 thru E-9 obligate required service prior to advancement per Article
3.A.20.d of Ref A.
7. The rank order number for each individual identified for advancement
in the EPAA is no longer indicated. The original rank order number may
be found at the Pay and Personnel Center CG Portal site
https://cg.portal.uscg.mil/units/ppc/SitePages/Advancements%20and%20Eva
luations%20Branch.aspx but is subject to change. This EPAA, to include
unit designations, will be available on PPC's CG Portal site.
8. Upon approved advancement, members are authorized to change their
RANK as it appears in the Global Address List (GAL) from the Self
Service portal at https://EDMS.uscg.mil/SelfService. This can be done
as a standard user without requiring admin-privileges, does not require
a call to CGFIXIT, and does not require a CGFIXIT Ticket. See this
self-help tech-tip for more information at
