 Welcome to a new week of the rundown. On this episode, changes to advancement exam readiness reviews, the Navy Surgeon General's message to the fleet, and the end of a CD-ROM-based program. Effective January 1st, the responsibility for recruitment and selection of fleet subject matter experts for advancement exam readiness reviews will be the responsibility of type commanders and rating sponsors. This change will allow for TICOMS and rating sponsors to become more engaged with recruiting experts and select panels that are closer to the deck plate level. TICOMS will be responsible for nominating SMEs for their rating under their purview. This will allow for the development of advancement exams that more clearly address each ratings priorities.
