We must look at this not as a challenge, but as an opportunity to develop our leaders now and into the future. We continue to provide a better manned, trained, equipped, and educated force, and in doing so our systems and developmental tools must advance as well.

2 With this advancement, we are faced with the opportunity to provide Soldiers with the best Evaluations Report that is nested in doctrine. In doing so, we felt it was our responsibility to provide you with a comprehensive tool to assist. This document is a supplement to the Center for Army Leadership s US Army Evaluations Guide. It is designed to assist and guide you when preparing the NCOER for you and your subordinates. This document is only a guide, the purpose is to provoke and stimulate thought, and provide a basis from which your thoughts and comments will grow. This information is an example only, as it is not the intention that comments will be taken directly from this supplement and used as your own on the NCOER .

3 The purpose was solely for use as a training supplement, used in conjunction with training material on the new NCOER in order to give leaders a starting point. What follows are definitions and a comprehensive look at comments the field feels are important to use to guide you in the development of the NCOER . PERFORMANCE measure definitions are given to assist you in understanding what is meant by DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARD, MET THE STANDARD, EXCEEDS THE STANDARD, and FAR EXCEEDS THE STANDARD. You should take these definitions into consideration along with information from the US Army Evaluations Guide as you develop your comments for the NCOER . This document is divided into two main areas: SGT NCOER Direct Level bullet comments and SSG-MSG NCOER Organizational level bullet comments.

4 Each main area is subdivided by CMF to better assist you in finding the information that best pertains to you and your Soldiers. This supplement provides a foundation to ensure that we develop the best Non-Commissioned Officers in the world. I encourage you to use it! //original signed// DENNIS A.
