SUBJ/CAREER REENLISTMENT OBJECTIVES (CREO)//
RMKS/1. DUE TO CONTINUED ACTIVE RESERVE INTEGRATION AND THE MERGER OF
THE SELRES ENLISTED COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION INTO THE
ACTIVE/FTS ENLISTED COMMUNITY MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION, THIS NAVADMIN
CONTAINS CREO INFORMATION FOR BOTH ACTIVE AND RESERVE COMPONENT SAILORS
AND SHOULD BE READ IN ITS ENTIRETY. ADDITIONALLY, THE POSSIBILITY TO
TRANSITION TO A CREO 3 RATING IS BEING INCLUDED, DEPENDING UPON
SPECIFIC YEAR GROUP AND CRITICAL SKILL SET. THIS CHANGE IS INTENDED TO
INCREASE THE WORK TRANSITION CAPABILITY OF OUR VALUABLE SAILORS
BALANCED AGAINST PROTECTING OVERMANNED YEAR GROUPS.
THESE CHANGES TO THE CREO PROGRAM ARE ADDITIONAL STEPS TO ENCOURAGE THE
RIGHT SAILORS TO MAKE THE STAY NAVY DECISION.

CONVERSION OPPORTUNITIES. CURRENT CREO CATEGORIES, CRITICAL SKILLS
LISTS, AND PERFORM TO SERVE (PTS) INFORMATION ARE ALSO PROVIDED FOR
MAKING INFORMED CAREER DECISIONS.
3. FOR PTS, CHANGES TO THE CREO CATEGORY OF A RATING BECOME EFFECTIVE
IMMEDIATELY. PER NAVADMIN 277/05, ALL CREO 1 SAILORS SHALL SUBMIT PTS
APPLICATIONS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR REENLISTMENT INTENTIONS.
4. CHANGES IN RATING WILL BE CONSIDERED FOR SAILORS IN CREO 2 OR CREO
3 RATINGS SEEKING ENTRY INTO CREO 1 RATINGS. REQUESTS FOR CHANGE IN
RATING TO CREO 2 RATINGS WILL BE ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS ONLY.
REQUESTS FOR CHANGE IN RATING TO CREO 3 WILL BE ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS
DEPENDING ON CRITICAL SKILL SET, SPECIFIC YEAR GROUP AND SHOULD BE
COORDINATED IN ADVANCE WITH ENLISTED COMMUNITY MANAGER. PER MILPERSMAN
1160-100, COMNAVPERSCOM (PERS-811A) MUST APPROVE ALL SELECTIVE TRAINING
REENLISTMENT PROGRAM REQUESTS BEFORE REENLISTMENT, REGARDLESS OF CREO
CATEGORY.
5. TERMS AND DEFINITIONS FOR CREO CLASSIFICATIONS.
