Under what condition is GT VI/IX currency extended for 180 days?

The condition under which GT VI/IX currency is extended for 180 days is if the individual is assessed as a "GO" in the most recent evaluated engagement. Being designated as "GO," which stands for "Go," indicates that the individual has successfully demonstrated the necessary skills and competencies in their recent assessment. This assessment signifies proficiency and readiness at a level that justifies the extension of currency, allowing the individual to continue operating effectively without the need for immediate re-evaluation or additional training.

This process ensures that personnel maintain the required standards while also recognizing their demonstrated capabilities. Extending currency based on recent performance helps streamline training and evaluation schedules, focusing resources on those who may need additional support or assessment instead. In contrast, the other scenarios do not provide the same level of assurance regarding readiness and competency, which is why they do not independently warrant the 180-day extension.
