ATG Advancement High

Three recent transfers also advanced to senior chief petty officer, making ATG Mayport advancement rates significantly higher than last year.

High advancement rates are attributed to the superior performance, leadership, and mentoring at sea by the Afloat Instructors at ATG Mayport.

Shore duty at ATG Mayport is unique because instructors earn sea pay and their sea counter is activated for training missions on ships.

Chief petty officers are required to be "at-sea" subject matter experts for their area of expertise, directly contributing to warfare area proficiency in the fleet. Each instructor has the opportunity to teach shipboard training teams and is a mentor to the deck plate leadership.

Shore duty at ATG Mayport allows individuals to use their leadership at sea while maintaining current warfare area knowledge, resulting in instructors being highly competitive for advancement.
