The STEP program is designed to recognize exceptional performers for promotion to the grades of staff sergeant through master sergeant. The Ogden Air Logistics Center only received one stripe for an Airman to be STEP promoted this year. The STEP program allows the center commander to conduct on-the-spot promotions for exceptional Airmen. Under the standard Weighted Airmen Promotion System, promotees are measured against all other eligible individuals and if selected, can wait up to 12 months before they officially wear the rank. With the STEP program, the selected assume the new rank immediately.
