Air Force Senior Non-Commissioned Officer (SNCO) Self Assessment for Promotion

Shop at Amazon.com

     Are you competitive for promotion? A realistic personal self-assessment of your current status is an excellent way to gauge your promotion competitiveness. Although promotion boards continue to adapt from year to year, much remains constant concerning what factors heavily influence your chances for that next stripe.


     This worksheet was compiled with just such data, especially promotion board after-action reports. Items listed below were considered pertinent to career enhancement and promotability. While not a ‘sure-fire’ promotion guarantee, the more items that you can check off on the “Above Average” and “Outstanding” sections, the more competitive your record should be, and probably will be, at the next board.


     Finally, remember that completion of every area below will not assure you of a promotion. These factors must be combined with your USAFE exam and other data (TIS, TIG, etc). However, it should very clearly help you answer the question: Am I competitive?
