Evolution of OPRs


Taking Care of the Your Record

Your record meets the board

Development Team, Vectoring, Promotion, HPERB,

Fellowships, IDE, Sq/CC, SDE, Gp/CC, etc

Most Commonly Found Discrepancies:

Duty Titles

Academic Degree Information

Primary (PAFSC) and Duty (DAFSC) AFSCs

Missing Duty History

Muddled/Cluttered Duty History

Security Clearance

Missing OPRs and/or Decorations


Officer’s Responsibility

Know the ROE

Promotion zone

Career path

Review the OSB and full AF record

Stay involved in corrections

Give input to the OPR

Give input to your PRF

Be proactive

Consult SGB


42G Challenges

Fixed clinical schedules with limited time for extras

Reduced Flt/CC opportunities for some 42Gs/BSCs

Non-BSC written OPRs

Limited visibility outside of clinic

Fewer numbers to support performance


OPR Red Zone

N


OPR Bullets

Readability!!!!! (Avoid jargon and acronyms)

Be cautious of excessively referencing additional or

“outside of unit” duties for O4 and above

Clinical/Technical versus leadership focus

Level of impact* (Flt, Sq, Grp, Wg, MAJCOM, AF, DoD)

Consistency in raters’ recommendations

Negative messages

Fluff—”RVU Guru” “Unparalleled initiative” “Sharp PA”

White space

No longer used as PRF inputs--needs to stand alone

OPR Details

Ensure duty title is consistent with AFMS Flight Path Guidance

Key duties

A frequently overlooked section of OPRs and PRFs

Edit this section EVERY OPR with increasing responsibility

and progression

Emphasize the leadership aspects of your job

Team Awards:

Fine in Capt to Major OPRs since not every CGO gets a

chance to lead teams

For Maj to Lt Col, emphasize team awards if you led the

team, these are GOLD!

Led BSC tm OTY

Led Flt OTQ, etc


OPR Stratification

Use meaningful stratification (PRF Guidance)

Crucial aspect of the OPR

Reveals where an officer stands among peers

Beneficial when favorable

Stratification within rater’s authority/rating chain

Quoting stratification from senior leader

Best placement is the “Red Zone”*

Caution using multiple stratifications in one OPR


Recommended OPR Stratification

Categories of comparison:

AF Grade: #1/10 Majors, #1/7 Capts

Command Position: #1/10 Flt/CCs, #1/7 Sq/CCs

CC/Grade: #2/6 Maj Flt/CCs

Duty Positions: Ops Officers, Branch Chiefs, Action

Officers, Instructors, PHOs, PAs, Pharmacists, BEEs etc

Officers may be stratified against civilian personnel in

equivalent duty positions

CGOs & FGOs are not authorized peer groups for PRFs


Job & Developmental Education Push

First line is almost always read, but last line is always read

Clearly state recommendation for next job

“Challenge with the toughest jobs”… Below Average

“Ready for large Flt/CC job next!”…Average

“SQ/CC ahead of peers!”…Strong

Clearly state recommendation for appropriate

level “in-residence” DE

“IDE” or “consider for IDE”… Average

“Must select for SDE” or “SDE a must!”…Strong

INSIGHT: Hard-hitting, enthusiastic pushes help differentiate &

strengthen a record!


Assignment “Job” Recommendations

AFI 36-2406

Evaluators may make one or more assignment

recommendations (Job Push) in officer evaluations

provided the recommendations are both appropriate and

realistically achievable for the officer’s current grade or

current grade plus one.

Don’t have to have Flt/CC (or Element Chief) in duty

history to be pushed for Sq/cc (or Flt/CC)!!!!
