How many types of NCOERs are there?

The correct response to the question about the types of Noncommissioned Officer Evaluation Reports (NCOERs) is based on the structure and categories established by Army regulations. There are indeed seven distinct types of NCOERs that cover a variety of evaluation situations:

1. Annual - This is the most common type of NCOER and is used to evaluate NCOs at the end of a rating period each year.

2. Change of Rater - Used when an NCO’s rater changes, this type serves to encapsulate the NCO's performance up until the point the new rater assumes authority.

3. Relief for Cause - Initiated when an NCO is relieved from duty for performance-related reasons, this type evaluates the circumstances leading to the relief.

4. 60-day Rater - This is utilized when an NCO has served under a rater for only a short period, typically 60 days, and thus requires an evaluation to capture performance during that time.

5. Temporary Duty (TDY) - Applicable to NCOs who are serving in a different duty status away from their primary assignment, ensuring evaluations are in line with their performance in that temporary role.
