Regulations and forms for the that support the implementation of a new NCO Evaluation Reporting System will be released online Tuesday. Nov. 10.

Barring an unexpected delay, the new NCO system will be used for most soldier ratings submitted Jan. 1, 2016, and later.

Governing policies, procedural guidance and the support form to be used with all NCO evaluations will be included in the documents to be released by the Army Publishing Directorate on TuesdayNov. 10.

Officially those documents are:

• Army Regulation 623-3 (Evaluation Reporting system)

•DA Pamphlet 623-3 (Evaluation Reporting System)

•DA Form 2166-9-1 (NCO Evaluation Report Support Form).

Because the regulation and pamphlet cover the officer and NCO rating systems, some of the changes included in the revised documents deal with officer reports.

The supporting regulation and pamphlet for the current officer and NCO systems were last updated in March 2014.

NCO reports that are prepared with "thru dates" of Dec. 31, 2015, and earlier, should be submitted on the NCOER system that employs DA Form 2166-8 as the evaluation report, and DA Form 2166-8-1 as the support form.

Reports with thru dates of Jan. 1 and later should be submitted with documents that support the new system.

To prepare for the transition, the new support form (DA Form 2166-9-1) is authorized for counseling in advance of Jan. 1. The form will be available in the Electronic Entry System, the online application for preparing and submitting NCOERs, as well as the Army Publishing Directorate.

The Army Publishing Directorate can be accessed at www.apd.army.mil and while the Electronic Entry System is available can be accessed at https://evaluations.hrc.army.mil/.
