Congratulations to Recent FQS Graduates Eleven Foremen completed the Foremen Qualification Standards (FQS) Proficiency Board June 23-25 in the Management Development Center. FQS is a tool used by general foremen to mentor foremen so they can attain proficiency in common areas of leadership and management. An FQS Guide, which is issued to new foremen when they attend Enhancing Personal Leadership for new supervisors, is used by the general foremen to track progress and establish a framework for successful performance.

The aircraft carrier USS George Washington (CVN 73) and ships from the U.S. Navy, the Indian Navy, and the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force participate in a photo exercise during Malabar 2014. Malabar is a U.S. Navy, Indian Navy, Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force trilateral naval field training exercise aimed to improve our collective maritime relationship and increase understanding in multinational operations. U.S. Navy photo
General foremen recommend their foremen to appear before the Proficiency Board after they have signed off on all of the tasks in the FQS Guide. The Board evaluates the foreman’s knowledge by asking questions about how they implement the desired behaviors on the job. The FQS process, including completing all of the tasks in the FQS Guide, and successfully appearing before Board, is rigorous, and requires a significant investment in time from the foreman and general foreman. All foremen who successfully completed the board were recognized with a unique FQS Coin and hard hat sticker. Additional recognition will occur at an event planned later in the year. Congratulations to the following FQS graduates: Cornelious Hawkins (X83/X18), Earl Brown (X73/X42), Mathew Hankins (X70/X43), Joseph Maddox (X88/X33), Scot Cash (X15), Brenda Hunter (X72/X32), Lance Ross (K78), Reginald Everett (K78), Brendan Kelly (X72/X42), Angela Bryant (X11) and Charles Crocker (X11).
