  ASSESSMENT
  5-7. Only commanders assess training. Based on observed task performance and other feedback, the
  commander renders a proficiency assessment (Trained, Practiced, Untrained). The commander’s assessment
  also informs planning for future training events on the areas that require improvement or sustainment.
  5-8. Commanders take a holistic view of feedback when assessing training. (See figure 5-1 for assessing
  training holistically.) A holistic view ensures that the final assessment is not based on one or a few sources
  of feedback but is a balanced consideration of all available information. T&EOs should not be the sole source
  of feedback the commander considers in making an assessment. However, T&EOs carry the predominance
  of input when commanders consider whether the unit can or cannot perform a task to standard. The results
  of the commander’s assessments are recorded for future reference.
