5. POLICY AND PROCEDURES.
a. In accordance with reference (a) chapter 5-C, all E-7's advanced on or after 1 January 1999 must
successfully complete the CPOACAD or a Department of Defense Senior Enlisted Academy in
order to be eligible to participate in the E-8 advancement process. Our long term goal is that all
E-7s complete this critical senior enlisted professional development course for their benefit,
personally and professionally, the rest of their career.
b. In accordance with reference (b) chapter 2.B.1.a.4.a, personnel who attend the CPOACAD must
have at least one year of service remaining on their current enlistment or period of active service
upon graduation.
c. All newly advanced CPOs should review course dates and determine the dates that best fit their
unit and personal needs. Class A and C Schools Schedules, COMDTNOTE 1540, publishes a
listing of convening dates for active and reserve CPO Academy classes. The Training Quota
Management Center (TQC) publishes regular updates to COMDTNOTE 1540 via message and
on TQC website: http://www.uscg.mil/hq/tqc. After selecting dates, members must submit an
electronic training request via Coast Guard Human Resource Management System (CGHRMS)
or send in a Short-Term Training Request (STTR) CG-5223, via their Commanding
Officer/Officer-In-Charge to Commandant (G-WTL-2). The request should list a minimum of
two preferred attendance dates, in rank order. Each request will remain valid for a six-month
period from the date Commandant (G-WTL-2) receives it.
