America's Health Responders - U.S. PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE COMMISSIONED CORPS
Promotion Information Web Site
Welcome to the Promotion Information Web site! The promotion system can be confusing and frustrating at times, but we have created this site to provide officers with as much information as possible about the process. All officers should become very familiar with this information as it will help you prepare for success in this process. This Web site is the official source of promotion information. The Office of Commissioned Corps Operations (OCCO) strongly urges against using any information that may be found elsewhere as it may be outdated or incorrect.
Promotion policy information is contained in the electronic Commissioned Corps Issuance System (eCCIS) which is available on the CCMIS web site. From the main web site, select “Publications,” “Commissioned Corps Issuance System”, “Table of Contents”, “Book 3 - Personnel Management”, “Chapter 3 – Promotions and Reductions” and then “Section 1 [Inst 331.01]” for Permanent Grade policy and “Section 2 [Inst 332.01]” for Temporary and EPP Grade policies.
