Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I didn't realize DP allocations were separate for BPZ and I/ABZ. So what was the DP BPZ allocation this year? Anyone have an idea historically what percentage of DP BPZs get promoted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osulax05 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) BPZ DP allocation was 15%. Last year, BPZ pilots with IDE had a ~44% select rate if I recall correctly. Edited January 27, 2019 by osulax05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will fix the glitch in manning by promoting more BPZ. Honestly it is smart you don’t need to be a Lt Col to be a commander. Now because they have to be they will make them sooner.

bennynova Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Last 5 years, DP rate for IPZ was 55% all of the 55% make it (for the most part) plus the next 15%.... around 70% DP tate for BPZ was 10% roughly 25% of the 10% make it there are more BPZ than IPZ, so it end up being 75% these are estimated. Don’t hold me to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epiloo Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 A large percentage of BPZs wouldn’t have attended school yet so it’s not something for a board to take into consideration anyway as a determining factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ Kind Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 A large percentage of BPZs wouldn’t have attended school yet so it’s not something for a board to take into consideration anyway as a determining factor.

Obviously the boardIs able to see who is in-res between narrative PRF, TR, and student status on their career brief.

This is technically true. Also, if the board is specifically instructed not to consider in-res vs non-res then it shouldn't matter (in a perfect world). Of course, unless Wg/CCs are also instructed to not consider in-res vs non-res in their allocation of DPs, it is still an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior raters are instructed to not consider whether someone has completed IDE in corespondence when making nominations for IDE in Res central board and when determining DP allocation for BPZ. However, I think it’s a pretty safe assumption some, not all, senior raters and/or MLR members ignore this guidance. One thing is for certain: Completing an in-res IDE program or being en route to an in-res IDE program is a trump card for BPZ consideration and, at a minimum, makes you a lock IPZ.

I had a former OG and WG commander state in no uncertain terms that they absolutely used correspondence as a discriminator for in res after your first look. That WG/CC is now wearing a star. I think it's safe to assume they treated DP the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celtic020 Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I feel fortunate my senior rater (Air Force 2-Star) did not use correspondence as a discriminator for in-res nominations. I had almost none of it done when I got selected for in-res. At least some folks are following the guidance, which actually makes sense. Using correspondence as a discriminator means they actually want you to do IDE twice....which is as dumb as it sounds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawnman Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 (edited) Here I thought you guys were talking about using the method of completion as a discriminator, not doing it by correspondence first to get picked up in residence.

Bendy Was sort of hedging my bets approaching my last look for IDE in-res in case I was not selected as the window between non-select notification and IPZ board is somewhat tight. But your point is well-received -- I hope Fingers' intent will come to fruition regarding the IDE selection process because it directly impacted me favorably as a non-shiny penny, slightly above average O-3 turned pretty good O-4 who kept working hard rather than the legacy system where your career track was pre-ordained simply based on whether you were a school select on your O-4 board or not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude. It doesn’t matter. The only reason to go to that is if you want to. Don’t do something that you don’t really want to at this stage in your life. If you want what it brings then try to go in res. If you don’t want it or don’t care then it’s gut check time. You have to start thinking about what you want to do and if you are ok separating or retiring as a major. If you are then why all of the stress over something you don’t even want? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How it should be... If the boss wants a guy to be a CC then offer an in res. Min running an online course just to get a promotion/show you care/being a company man clearly falls under “what’s wrong with the AF” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
