Airmen reminded of Promotion Testing No Show Policy Published Nov. 21, 2006 RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany -- Each Airman should understand the no-show policy for promotion testing. These rules apply to all enlisted members testing for promotion. Airmen who arrive to the testing facility late or fail to show up at all should report to their commander's support staff to explain the reason for the no-show, and determine if they are still eligible to test for that cycle. No-show excuses such as traffic, oversleeping, reporting to the wrong building or incorrectly marking on the calendar are not excusable, and the Airman must wait until the next testing cycle. The CSS, the testing office and the military personnel flight will coordinate a formal no-show letter to determine if a new test date can be approved. If the unit commander approves the rescheduling, there are two approval authorities for awarding a new test date depending on the reason for the no-show or late arrival. If the reason for the no-show or tardiness was outside the Airman's control, the final approval authority is the military personnel flight commander. If the reason was within the Airman's control, the final approval authority is the mission support squadron commander. For more information, contact the CSS or the Ramstein testing office at 480-5449. (Information provided by the Ramstein testing office)
