Which regulation covers the Evaluation and Reporting System?

• A. AR 600-100
• B. AR 623-3
• C. AR 70-90
• D. AR 15-6

Answer: (B)

Evaluations and performance reporting in the Army are defined by AR 623-3. This regulation lays out the entire Evaluation Reporting System, including who writes evaluations, who is evaluated, the rating chain, and the rules for timing, content, and submission. It ensures fairness and consistency so a Soldier’s performance is assessed in a comparable way across units, with clear feedback and development guidance and accountability built into the process. The other regulations govern different topics—professionalism and ethics, acquisition policy, and investigations—so they do not cover how evaluations are conducted and reported.
