Yeah so validation was always required, if a member used someone else's capid.--so was SET, however SET wasn't specialty specific back then, it was just one over-arching thing once you had it (by passing the little 10 question quiz thingy), it applied universally.Now SET is per-specialty, so you might be SET in one thing but not in another. And you have to be current/qualified AND SET to sign someone off, which wasn't exactly the case, before. Now the system works the way it was always intended to (as described in the regs), it has only just recently begun to be software enforced. Also now you will see wings implementing rules like "you must be qualified for 1 year before we will make you an SET"
From Spam...unsurprised to see that LTC Long and his pros are still logging individual certs (I've come to expect straight arrow, pro performance from them). Were I to see someone submit a diploma in lieu of individual task entries linked to a valid SET qual CAPID, I'd disapprove that in a heartbeat.
I would like to see hope that LTC Long address the following.QuoteFrom Spam...unsurprised to see that LTC Long and his pros are still logging individual certs (I've come to expect straight arrow, pro performance from them).

His staff is logging skills and task achievements. His graduates still have to upload the certifications, or bring back to the squadron.This was the case with the cadet that transferred to my squadron. She alleged she attended NESA and was GTM3 qualified. However no certificate had been uploaded but eServices OPS QUAL stated she was GTM3. I asked for her certificate, and looked for task completion. So I accepted what she said, and uploaded said certificate into the system.Spam, are you saying this is not good? That the certificates from NESA are not / should not be accepted in lieu of the SQTRs if brought by a cadet?

As of the 2016 activity, BADGES were not being entered automatically (QUALIFICATIONS are, but BADGES were not) - the respective commander or ESO had to go validate that separately. I will note as a squadron commander and group ESO that this should be a purely administrative process and takes about one second to do.
Approved directors of wing, region, or national emergency services schools canissue CAPFs 101 for all specialties except IC, CISM, ARCHER or NOC Augmentees. Tasksmay be entered when training is provided by an authorized instructor. Approved directors mayissue CAPFs 101 for IC, CISM or ARCHER Operator when granted authority by the appropriatewing or region commander, their designees, or NHQ CAP/DO in advance. NHQ CAP/DO willcoordinate approval of these school directors receiving appropriate access to Ops Quals to enterqualification data.
CAP wing or region commanders (or their designees) and school/activity directors, asappropriate, are the approval authority for the award of aeronautical ratings, ES qualification,ground team, or incident commander badges, and ES patches to members within theirorganization.
