Numbering of performance objectives

[Neill McKay]

I'm wondering if anyone can share some insight on how PO numbers are determined.  The reason I'm asking is that quite a few courses seem to have all of the PO numbers in the 400s: 401, 402, etc.  (Examples include several of the safety-related short courses like SMC, HOIC, etc., all four phases of the Sea Cadet training programme, and all of the CIC courses.)

Is there any particular significance to PO numbers in the 400s?

Because the Performance Objectives are found in Chapter 4 of the Course Training Plan.

This is slowly changing - not all MAs have the POs in Chapter 4, some are ch 2.  As QSs and then TPs get rewritten, the POs are being numbered 001, 002, etc.  So don't be surprised if on one course they're 401 etc, then another 001 etc.  It just adds to the confusion and therefore keeps me in business! ;D

Hidden in plain sight!
