Ghi chú thăng cấp

Nhấp vào cấp bậc bất kỳ ở trên để xem tiêu chí thăng cấp cụ thể — mỗi cấp hiển thị cả lộ trình Commandant theo Lớp học (Bảng 5-1) và Ngoài lớp học (Bảng 5-2). Các quy tắc chung sau đây áp dụng cho cả hai:

  • Degrees must come from regionally accredited institutions; the GED is the only acceptable HS-diploma equivalent. Where a degree is required, conferral must be documented — units alone do not qualify.
  • Time in grade begins at the effective date of appointment/promotion in the CACC.
  • All Commandants of Cadets require the recommendation of their school board or administrative official and Brigade Advisor (para 5-5).
  • Extra qualifications (Cadet Colonel in CACC, 3+ years military experience, instructor at 3 annual encampments, clear DSSS Basic Military Teaching Credential, or a Bachelor's with a clear teaching/administrator/PPS credential) may substitute up to 12 months of time in grade — one time only, for the first promotion after initial appointment.
  • OCS credit: prior CACC service reaching C/MAJ or higher; a Federal or State Guard OCS program; 2+ years of college ROTC; or completion of the Commandant Leadership School.
  • Promotion to CW5 and MAJ through COL requires a Bachelor's Degree (the only equivalent is an AA plus the professional-development requirements).
  • ILE = clear Basic Drill Credential; MEMS Basic Badge + Emergency Training Ribbon; a professional certification; equivalent military PME; a graduate degree; 4 years as Brigade Advisor or HQ CACC staff officer; or 24 hours of HQ-provided professional development. Renews for each rank.
  • WOCC equivalency: SME service at three annual encampments (grade SGT+) or 21 full days supporting CACC activities.

CR 1-4 promotes commandants on two tracks. A Classroom Commandant teaches one or more CACC class periods and must complete the Basic Course of Teaching Approaches (BCTA) at each level (Table 5-1). A Non-Classroom Commandant is any adult member who is not a classroom commandant — e.g., special projects, support, or HQ staff — and promotes without BCTA, often with different time-in-grade and recommending authorities (Table 5-2). Each rank below shows the criteria for both tracks.
