Promotions are a way to track the progress of members as they participate in the organization. Some ranks, at the service line, only require time in grade and a certain amount of points, whereas other ranks also require exams and even promotion boards. Some promotions are obligatory, and it is your job as chapter CO to ensure the member gets promoted on time. Furthermore, if a member is due for review at a promotion board, you’re required to submit that member to a promotion board, where members will review their activities, coursework, and accomplishments to determine whether or not that individual is due promotion to the next rank. | Promotions are a way to track the progress of members as they participate in the organization.

You, as a chapter CO, have the authority to promote members up to E-6, so long as the member meets the criteria set forth in [[Admiralty Order 1701-01]]. You may also find yourself in need of more officers. If your ship is above the minimum members, and promoting someone will not put you over 20% of your crew being officers, you may promote someone to Ensign (O-1). Anyone who has been a Petty Officer 3rd class for at least 4 months is eligible to become an officer. Promoting officers is a good way to delegate tasks to spread the load and encourage participation, as well as potentially start grooming them for becoming a CO of a chapter of their own. | You, as a chapter CO, have the authority to promote members up to E-6, so long as the member meets the criteria set forth in [[Orders:Admiralty Order 1701-01]].
