Under what process do Airmen who test after initial selects have been made, such as deployed Airmen, or anyone who was unable to test during their normal testing window, compete for promotion consideration?

Under what process do Airmen who test after initial selects have been made, such as deployed Airmen, or anyone who was unable to test during their normal testing window, compete for promotion consideration?

• A. Deferred Testing Process
• B. In-System Supplemental Promotion Process
• C. Post-Testing Promotion Process
• D. Supplemental Testing Window

Answer: (B)

The idea being tested is how Airmen who miss the standard testing window or are deployed get included in promotion consideration through a dedicated, in-system path. The In-System Supplemental Promotion Process is designed exactly for this: Airmen who test after initial selects or who couldn’t test during the normal window can still compete in the current promotion cycle by using this integrated, in-system process. It ensures their results and eligibility are captured in the promotion board workflow without waiting for a later window, making it the appropriate mechanism for post-window testing and consideration. Other options don’t fit as well because they refer to different ways of handling testing timing or postponement. Deferred Testing typically implies postponing testing itself, not the structured path to promotion consideration. A standalone Supplemental Testing Window suggests simply an extra window for testing, but not the formal promotion process that processes those results for cycle consideration. Post-Testing Promotion Process isn’t a recognized method for handling these cases within the promotion system.
