position. However, an evaluation form shall NOT be used to show two
different types of training.
EXAMPLE: A single form shall NOT be used to evaluate a
trainee's proficiency at one position and qualification or remedial
training at another.
b. DA Forms 3479-1-R provide a written evaluation of a rated
position-qualified controller's ability to perform at a position. It
is also used to evaluate a trainee's progress toward becoming
position qualified.
If proficiency or training progress is not
satisfactory, the controller or trainee must be told why and what
must be done to improve. This may include study assignments, oral or
written tests, or extra time on a position.
The ATC or facility
chief should use the results of trainee or controller evaluations to
determine training trends, time extensions, modifications to the
facility training program, and so forth. DA Forms 3479-1-R are also
used to approve or disapprove reclassification requests.

Once evaluations are signed by the reviewing authority, all

attached to the right foldout portion of the DA Form 3479-R. Results

training record. Evaluations shall be retained until the trainee is
