(Facts)

(Evaluation)

Explanations

* A task knowledge scale value may be used alone or with a task performance scale value to define a level of knowledge for a specific task. (Example: b and 1b) ** A subject knowledge scale value is used alone to define a level of knowledge for a subject not directly related to any specific task, or for a subject common to several tasks.

X This mark is used alone in course columns to show that training is required but not given due to limitations in resources.

- This mark is used alone instead of a scale value to show that no proficiency is provided in the course or CDC.

3/5/7 Indicates a core task. Core tasks are critical for 3-, 5-, and 7-level personnel. They require full support for training accomplishment and are deemed critical for career progression, upgrade, and operational mission necessity.

NOTE: Ensure that the trainer is adhering to the proficiency code key when signing off each individual line item.
