Crossing the threshold of captaincy is a momentous occasion in our community – the result of years of writing, mentoring, and learning the ropes. This multi-step process starts with nomination from two members of the fleet at or above the rank of Commander, an initial vote from the Executive Council followed by a written exam, a practical exam, an interview with the Executive Council, and a final vote from the Executive Council. Candidates must show that they are accomplished and skilled simmers, deft teachers, have a deep well of Star Trek knowledge, and the foundational skills of leadership. | |||
