SUBJECT: What to do when Your Trainee is Ready to be Upgraded to the Next Skill Level

1. When you want to recommend someone for upgrade please do the following:

a. The supervisor needs to make an annotation in the trainees AF Form 623, recommending the trainee for upgrade. (Example: Airman Jones has completed all mandatory requirements for upgrade to the 5 or 7 skill level and supervisor sign your name and date). The date should be a current date.

b. The trainee and supervisor will sign the AF Form 623a.

c. Forward the trainees AF Form 623 (individuals training record), the master task listing, and 7 level school certificate (if upgrading to 7 lvl) to me for review.

d. I will review the trainees training records and sign the AF Form 623a.

e. I will then begin processing an AF IMT 2096 Classification /On-The-Job Training Action worksheet through the Unit Training Monitor.

f. The 2096 is routed through the Squadron Commander and the Base Training Monitor for signatures.

g. The process could take anywhere from 4-10 days. Once the 2096 is complete, and I have received the signed copy from the Unit Training Monitor, I will place a copy into the trainee’s 623 binder inside Tab G. The trainee will then be officially upgraded to the next skill level.
