T&EO Basics
The official Army website repository where leaders can search for and download T&EOs for their unit.
What is the Army Training Network (ATN)?
This section of the T&EO describes the operational environment, weather, and enemy situation present during the task.
What are the Conditions?
The standard two-letter grading system used by evaluators for individual performance measures on a T&EO.
What is GO / NO-GO?
This individual is responsible for observing the training, filling out the T&EO, and providing unbiased feedback.
Who is the Observer Coach/Trainer (OC/T) or Evaluator?
A complete T&EO is composed of the task, the conditions, and this critical third element.
What is the Standard?
This section defines the minimum acceptable proficiency required for a unit to successfully complete the task.
What is the Standard?
The highest overall proficiency rating a unit can receive on a collective task, indicating they are "Fully Trained."
What is a "T" rating?
The OC/T facilitates this structured, professional discussion immediately following the training event
What is an After Action Review (AAR)?
These are the major actions or sub-tasks a unit must accomplish to successfully execute a collective task.
What are Performance Steps?
If a unit conducts training at night while wearing MOPP 4 gear, they are increasing the difficulty of this T&EO element.
What are the Conditions?
A unit receives this lowest rating if they cannot perform the task to standard and require complete retraining.
What is a "U" (Untrained) rating?
Before any evaluation begins, the OC/T must ensure this critical operational factor is prioritized above all training objectives.
What is Safety?
T&EOs are directly aligned to this list, which defines the unit's core warfighting capabilities and mission.
What is the Mission Essential Task List (METL)?
Standards on a T&EO must be measurable, observable, and directly linked to this overarching Army training doctrine publication.
What is FM 7-0 (Training)?
This rating means the unit has attained a basic level of proficiency but still has significant shortcomings and needs practice.
What is a "P" (Practiced) rating?
OC/Ts must evaluate the unit based only on the standards written in this document, not on their personal opinions or past unit SOPs.
What is the T&EO?
These are critical elements designated in a T&EO that represent the absolute most important steps; failing one often results in a task failure.
What are Leader Performance Measures (or Critical Performance Measures)?
These specific sub-tasks are evaluated individually by the OC/T as "GO" or "NO-GO" to determine if the overarching standard is met.
What are Performance Measures?
To achieve the maximum "T" rating, a unit must usually execute the collective task under these types of operational conditions.
What are Complex and Dynamic (or Realistic) conditions?
This is the final step in the training management cycle where the OC/T or Commander records the T&EO results into DTMS.
What is the Assess phase?
