Example: A developmental employee successfully
completed 2 phases of training at an ATC-11 facility
and then moved to, and completed, 1 phase of training,
at an ATC-9 facility. This employee would receive
points for phases completed only at the highest ATC
level facility: ATC-11 = 7 X 2 phases completed = 14
points. Total for Factor 1 would be 14.

FACTOR 2 - Aviation Experience. (Max 5 pts.)

TALLY
For use of Rating Official only. Use Tally
to record values for each factor. Add up the
total score and enter it in the box at top right

(Max. 42 pts.) Points are assigned for the highest
level ATC facility to which the applicant was
permanently assigned and facility/area certified as a
CPC. Assign 3 points times the highest level. For
employees who are not currently in an ATC facility,
use the conversion table below to get the ATC level
equivalent. Use the table to convert FPL level FG/GS
to ATC levels. Award the point value that would
provide the maximum benefit to the employee.
