Inflation of Ratings in the NCOERS
Abstract
An ethical dilemma that has the Army at a crossroads with it's Noncommissioned Officer Evaluation Reporting System (NCOERS) is leaders inflating their ratings in the evaluation of noncommissioned officers (NCOs). The purpose of the NCOERS is to strengthen the ability of the NCO Corps to meet the professional challenges of the future through the indoctrination of Army values and basic NCO responsibilities. It also ensures the selection of the best qualified NCOs to serve in positions of increasing responsibility by providing rating chain view of performance and potential for use in centralized selection, assignment, and other Enlisted Personnel Management System (EPMS) decisions. Without modifying the current NCOERS, or the implementation of a new NCOERS, the Army will continue to fail to not promote the most qualified and deserving Soldiers.
