The four primary individuals in the Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) rating chain are the rated NCO, the rater, the senior rater, and the reviewer. The rated NCO is the individual being evaluated, while the rater is typically the immediate supervisor responsible for assessing the rated NCO's performance. The senior rater provides an additional level of evaluation and mentorship, and the reviewer ensures the evaluation process is conducted fairly and accurately. Together, they form a comprehensive system for performance assessment and professional development.

When you have a change in your immediate rating chain (your rater changes due to PCS, Relief for Cause, etc...). AR 623-3 para 3-44 (b) 1-3 states: 1. The rated NCO ceases to serve under the immediate supervision of the rater and minimum rating qualifications have been met. 2. A rated NCO is reduced to corporal/specialist or below. Part 1c will contain the reduced rank and part 1d will reflect the effective date of the reduction. Reduction to another NCO grade does not require a report. 3. The rated NCO is separated from active duty. As an exception, retirement reports of less than 1 year will be rendered at the option of the rater or senior rater or when requested by the rated NCO.
No. Absolutely not. Leadership counsels down the chain, not up.
