A reminder that those senior Members who achieved their current grade on or before 11 Aug 2014 must complete the old requirements for promotion by 11 Aug 2018
1Lt-Captain. Level II
Captain to Major Level III
Major to Lt Col Level IV
11 Aug 2018 is the deadline to actually complete the training, have it posted to your record, and have the promotion approved at National HQ.
It took awhile, but I finally got my grade of Major last November. I was really pushing to get the grade before August (which I'll only wear once, coming this April when I retire). Wife and parents will be there. Phew, what a ride! :)
CAPR 35-5
Released in 2014
http://captalk.net/index.php?topic=19182.msg352623#msg352623
Revised again in 2016
http://captalk.net/index.php?topic=21623.msg396201#msg396201
The 1-click door closes in 4 months, at which point the duty performance requirements for
promotion for all members will increase to the below.
Promotion To Minimum Skill Level Time-In-Grade
2d Lt Level I 6 months as a member
1st Lt Level II 18 months as 2d Lt or TFO (or combination thereof)
Captain Level III 30 months as 1st Lt or SFO (or combination thereof)
Major Level IV 4 years as Captain
Lt Col Level V 5 years as Major
Grandfathered 1-Ups must be submitted by 11 Aug 2018. There's no indication how a promotion
submitted on 11 Aug that takes 6 months to float the various board will be handled, but
it's probably not a good idea to wait and find out.
As discussed any number of times, the biggest pinch point for most members to Lt Col is RSC,
which requires a week of time and has limited seats. The PME many were counting
on was lost as an option around the same time the new requirements were instituted due to prerequisites.
This changed extends(ed) the minimum TIG for Lt Col to 13 years from the previous 10, and
also included a new pinch point of Level V, which requires NSC. That second point is what will be the
real limiting factor in new Lt Cols as while there are a number of RSCs (are there actually 8?), there's only
one NSC, which takes a fairly small group each year.
I'm sure there are any number of members unaware of the change, who will be caught off-guard when the
door closes, but so warned, take action.
I have been pushing this and have several Majors who will be eligible assuming they get the RSC and CAPF 24 in by the cutoff.
Someone lost my paperwork for my Senior Level, and I am now in a [darn] panic to get it re-written and submitted on time. I have all other requirements... Pray for me!
I merged the two topics. Let's try to keep it that way.
Where would I find the cutoff info, besides here at CAP Talk? I have a couple Captains that would fall under this clause.
Never mind...it's right there in 35-5 as you mentioned at the top of your post Eclipse. I need to light a small fire under a couple of my senior members.
Does anyone happen to have a copy of the old CAPR 35-5 at all?

I have the 1 Jan 2014 version as well. I have no idea how much is different between that one and the 2008 version that Eclipse posted.
