  Curriculum Vitae (CV)

  The CV is an overview of your entire career and is used to convey information not reflected on the Promotion Information Report (PIR). It is very important that a current CV is in your Official Personnel Folder (eOPF) and Officer Promotion Package Verification System (OPPVS). An absent, outdated, or improperly formatted CV will make you less competitive for promotion. When uploading your CV, please note that only the most recently submitted CV is pulled from your eOPF to your OPPVS, and the CV cover page should be merged with your CV in the same document.

  In collaboration with our Chief Professional Officers, Commissioned Corps Headquarters (CCHQ) created a standardized CV format for use by all 11 categories and 5 Promotion Category Groups. All officers, regardless of category and grade, must use the standardized CV format. The CV assists board members in quickly locating information to score specific precepts. You may access guidance on the CV cover page, CV body and continuing education summary sheet by clicking on the links below.
