When Writing an NCOER You want
•
Place strongest bullet up front
•
The rater will write the NCOER not the rated NCO
•
Bullet comments should be past tense for contributions/achievements and present tense for values
•
Use action words and avoid using personal pronouns and names
•
Bullets should be clear and concise, avoid vague comments
•
Paint clear and accurate portrait of rated NCO
•
Reflect significant accomplishments during rating period on report
•
Bullet comments should justify the rating in the checked box
•
*** DO NOT FUDGE BULLETS. NCO’s GET WHAT THEY DESERVE***
•
•
•
•
AMONG THE BEST = absolute top performers
FULLY CAPABLE = good performers but less than the best
MARGINAL = failed one or more standards
Render fair, accurate and unbiased reports
33
GUARDIAN EAGLES
Interpretation of Ratings
• EXCELLENCE: Exceeds Standards;
demonstrated by specific
examples and measurable results; special and unusual - achieved by only a
few; clearly better than peers
ex: Received physical fitness badge
Qualified entire squad as expert with M-16
• SUCCESS: Meets all standards; NCO is fully competitive for promotion
and schooling
ex: Established comprehensive cross-training program
for his section
Shares experiences readily, constantly teach Soldiers
• NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: NCO missed meeting some standards
ex: Was often unaware of whereabouts of subordinates
Unprepared to conduct formal training on three
occasions.

Part V- Rater
Line Va (Overall Potential for Promotion)
Among the best- NCOs who demonstrated a very good, solid performance and a
strong recommendation for promotion and/or service in positions of greater
responsibility.
Fully capable- NCOs who have demonstrated a good performance and strong
recommendation for promotion should sufficient allocations be available.
Marginal- NCOs who demonstrated poor performance and should not be promoted
at this time.
41
GUARDIAN EAGLES
Part V- Rater
Line Vb (Future Assignments): Rater lists up to three (at least two)
different future duty positions (job title) in which the rated NCO could best
serve the Army at the current or next grade. When the rated NCO is being
reduced to a lower grade, raters may enter duty positions of the lower grade.
42
GUARDIAN EAGLES

Third bullet should focus on potential
44
GUARDIAN EAGLES
Common Mistakes on NCOER
•
reports received with all five ‘excellence’ marks (a ‘max’ report) gives the
impression NCO has overachieved in all areas. Leaves no room for improvement
•
too many NCO-ERs have ‘unjustified’ excellence marks - if there are no proven
accomplishments then the board considers it only a ‘successful’ rating.
•
too many NCOs are receiving 1/1 senior rater marks without the bullet comments
to support the rating
•
too many NCOs are receiving ‘Among the Best’ ratings by the rater -- boards have
difficulty determining rater’s intent.
•
too many senior raters do not address potential in their bullets -- tell the board who
they should promote, the type of assignments best suitable for the rated NCO, and
the schooling the NCO should attend.
•
cannot check “among the best” block if there is a “needs improvement” bullet
45
GUARDIAN EAGLES
NCOER Tips
•
Ensure counseling is happening
•
Justify Excellence Bullets - Tell the story …
•
If you give a Success box check, say something - Don’t leave it blank
•
Ensure Junior Officers and NCOs know system
•
Avoid generalities, begin bullets with action verbs
•
Want to be consistent in performance and rating throughout the entire file with particular focus on the last
five NCOER
•
Best reports are those with three ‘clearly justified’ excellence ratings and two success ratings with strong
bullet comments as opposed to five excellence check marks
•
Senior Rater markings of ‘1’ and ‘1’ standout, particularly when supported by strong bullet comments
•
S/R marking of ‘2’ is still good when sprinkled among several reports of ‘1’ ratings;
•
NCO-ER Quality Control - suggest using CSM to review the NCOER before being submitted
