CORPORALS COURSE- ADMINISTRATION STUDY
GUIDE
Promotions - answers-•proficiency and conduct marks are used in the computation of
composite scores of lance corporals and corporals. Regular promotion to corporal and
sergeant depends on a marine's composite score.
•the promotion system up to the rank of sergeant is described in the promotion system
lesson of this course.
•the reference is marine corps order p1400.32d, marine corps promotion manual,
volume 2, enlisted promotions, also known as the promotion manual.

Reenlistments - answers-•all marines applying for reenlistment must have a minimum
proficiency and conduct mark average of 4.0/4.0 during the current enlistment contract
and extensions to that contract.
•the reference is mco 1040.31, enlisted retention and career
development manual.

Certain duty assignments - answers-as special duty and independent duty assignments
involve demanding duties or duties with an unusual degree of responsibility, marines
must meet special requirements which include minimum proficiency and conduct marks.
•marine recruiter duty: corporals applying for recruiting duty must have a minimum
4.6/4.6 proficiency/conduct mark average.
•marine security guard duty: marine security guard applicants must have a minimum
4.2/4.2 proficiency/conduct mark average.
•independent duty: marines going on independent duty must have a minimum 4.4/4.4
proficiency/conduct mark average.
The reference is mco p1326.6d, selecting, screening, and preparing enlisted marines for
special duty assignments and independent duties.

Characterization and discharge - answers-•honorable characterization of service is the
highest quality characterization and is appropriate when the quality of the marine's
service has met the standards of accepted conduct and performance of duty for military
personnel. Therefore, characterization will be honorable for marines with an average
proficiency mark of 3.0 or higher and average conduct mark of 4.0 or higher.
•this is important as a less than honorable characterization may reduce employment
opportunities and the benefits received from veterans affairs after discharge.
•the reference is mco 1900.16, separation and retirement manual.

Purpose of pros and cons - answers-•the purpose of proficiency (pro) and conduct (con)
marks is to indicate how proficiently individual marines performed their primary duties,
and how they conducted themselves during the rating period.

Responsibility of nco - answers-the responsibilities of staff noncommissioned officers
(sncos) and noncommissioned officers (ncos) include training and supervising marines
in the performance of their duties. This close relationship gives ncos the ability to record

,information on a marine's performance and to evaluate their performance during the
reporting period. Ncos' responsibilities include providing a fair and balanced
recommendation for pro and con marks to the commander.

Responsibility of co - answers-the commanding officer establishes unit policies and
procedures for recommending and assigning proficiency and conduct marks. Since the
commanding officer cannot physically observe all corporals and below on a daily basis,
the commander will rely on sncos and ncos to evaluate the performance of their
marines and to submit recommended proficiency and conduct marks. Although the
commander should review and consider the recommended marks, the commander has
sole responsibility in the assignment of marks for each marine. The commanding officer
is the deciding authority and is responsible for maintaining an equitable proficiency and
conduct performance evaluation system for marines in his/her charge.

Pro and cons policy - answers-marine corps order p1070.12k, individual records
administration manual, or iram, provides sncos, ncos, and commanders with the
guidance necessary to recommend and assign proficiency and conduct marks. The iram
establishes guidelines to create consistency in the evaluation process, measuring
specific factors expected of all marines.
Marks are required for corporals and below. The process for assigning proficiency and
conduct marks is founded in the belief that the commander who assigns these marks
and the sncos or ncos who recommend them are familiar with paragraph 4005 of the
iram. Paragraph 4005 provides guidance in three major areas:
•occasions when proficiency and conduct marks are assigned
•attributes to examine when doing a performance evaluation
•rating scale to use when recommending or assigning marks

Occasions that require pro and con marks - answers-transfer - both
Temporary disability retired list - both

Annual - only reservists
Completion of annual training - only reservists
Recommended (mco p1400.32) - both
Active duty special work - only reservists

Evaluation proficiency- what attributes or factors should be considered when making an
evaluation of a marine's proficiency? - answers-the proficiency mark should indicate

, how well a marine performed their primary duties during the marking period. In addition
to technical skills and specialized knowledge, relating to duty proficiency marks, the
"whole marine concept" must be considered. The "whole marine concept" necessitates
that the following attributes should also be evaluated and incorporated into the
proficiency mark: mission accomplishment, leadership, intellect and wisdom, individual
character, physical fitness, personal appearance, and completion of professional military
education, courses hosted on marinenet, and off-duty education.
•note that per maradmin 209/15, marine corps institute (mci) courses were transferred
to the college of distance education and training at marine corps university and became
courses hosted on marinenet.

Attributes of proficiency - answers-mission accomplishment

Mission accomplishment addresses both the ends (results) and the means (how the
marine achieved those results). Therefore, this attribute can be broken down into:
performance and proficiency.
•performance is measured by how successful the marine was in producing results in the
assigned billet, as well as any additional duties formally or informally assigned during
the reporting period.
•proficiency is measured by how well the marine demonstrated technical knowledge and
practical skill in the execution of those duties.

Intellect and wisdom

The marine possesses an effective knowledge-base which allows for good judgment
and decision-making ability. This attribute can be broken down into: judgment and
decision-making.
•judgment is the discretionary aspect of decision-making. Judgment draws on core
values, knowledge, and personal experience to make wise choices.
•making sound decisions leads to mission accomplishment. You should actively collect
and evaluate information and weigh alternatives to make the best decision.

Leadership

During performance of duties, the marine displays ideal leadership qualities such as
leading and developing subordinates, setting the example, ensuring the well-being of
subordinates, and effective communication skills.
•leading subordinates is the application of leadership principles to provide direction and
motivate subordinates.
•developing subordinates is the commitment to train, educate, mentor, and challenge
subordinates.
•marines who set the example serve as a role model for others.
•ensure the well-being of subordinates by having a genuine interest in the well-being of
marines.
•communication skills is the effective transmission and receipt of thoughts and ideas
that enable leadership.
