Basic Unit Administration LCDR David I. Hull, NSCC LCDR Matthew P. Landry, NSCC Our Agenda HOW TO: Receive new enrollment paperwork Process a new cadet application through MAGELLAN Set up new service jacket Handling promotions and other personnel actions Locate additional resources when you have questions
Shot Across the Bow Above all else, follow the letter and the spirit of the Regulations. Our cadets achieve more when they are challenged and inspired, not when we lower our program s standards. You will face opportunities to cut corners. Resist that urge and do the right thing. YOU ARE IMPORTANT The role of an Admin Officer may seem thankless and boring at times, but your efforts directly lead to: Timely promotions and awards for the cadets Trainings of their choice, exchanges, scholarships, etc. Tight, professional unit management A better Annual Inspection Score*

NSCADM001 (Page 5/6) Report of Medical Exam (ADM 001 p. 5/6) required upon enrollment Should be updated after injuries/illnesses/surgery Concussions!!! Do not need to update each year if no major health changes But, most cadets get a physical each year why not update??

Service Records - General Guidelines Why do we still need hard copy service jackets? Parents signatures! Permission to treat... Always available, even when the internet is not plenty of units & trainings without reliable internet access. LESS IS MORE. Do not waste your time (and contribute to deforestation) by adding needless extra paper into a cadet s service record Minimize use of Administrative Remarks Pen & ink Record of Advancement & Awards Cadet Service Jacket [Admin Manual 0106.1]
Adult Service Jacket [Admin Manual 0206.1] Staying Organized (and Sane!) Keep copies of all old medical history forms (ADM001 p. 3/4) and physical exams (AMD001 p. 5/6) in reverse chronological order at the bottom of the right side. Include a copy of the cadet s health insurance card. Remember to stamp U.S. NAVAL SEA CADET CORPS on any DOD/USN jackets or forms (e.g., old CNET correspondence course certificates) [Admin Manual 0106.1] New NSCC specific Service Jackets are available! During summer training season, coordinate with Training Officer before each drill, so you know which cadets need their records prepared and issued
