GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  COMMANDING GENERAL (CG), TRAINING AND EDUCATION COMMAND (TECOM) SPONSORS THE ANNUAL TRAINING INPUT PLAN (TIP) CONFERENCE, AND THE TECOM FORMAL SCHOOLS TRAINING DIVISION (C 4611) ACTS AS THE CG'S AGENT TO CONDUCT TIP CONFERENCES.  THE FY13-17 TIP CONFERENCE WILL BE CONDUCTED FROM TUESDAY, 28 FEBRUARY 2012 THROUGH THURSDAY, 01 MARCH 2012 AT LIVERSEDGE HALL (BUILDING 15), MARINE CORPS BASE, QUANTICO, VIRGINIA.  THESE CONFERENCE DATES HAVE CHANGED FROM THE CONFERENCE DATES PUBLISHED IN REF (A).  THIS MESSAGE PROVIDES FINAL CONFERENCE GUIDANCE, AS WELL AS A REVIEW OF GUIDANCE PUBLISHED IN REF (A) FOR SPONSORS' SUBMISSION OF FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS IN PREPARATION FOR THE TIP CONFERENCE. 
2.  BACKGROUND
A.  PER REFS (B) AND (C), C 4611 ANNUALLY SOLICITS FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING QUOTA REQUIREMENTS FROM FORMAL SCHOOL REQUIREMENT SPONSORS (MANPOWER AND RESERVE AFFAIRS, MARINE CORPS RECRUITING COMMAND, MARINE CORPS COMBAT DEVELOPMENT COMMAND, OCCUPATIONAL FIELD MANAGERS AS DEFINED IN REF (D), AND MARINE FORCES COMMANDERS).  THIS INFORMATION IS COMPILED INTO THE TIP, DISSEMINATED, AND USED AS A PLANNING TOOL FOR THOSE ACTIVITIES REQUIRED TO PLAN, PROGRAM, RESOURCE, AND SCHEDULE TRAINING CAPACITY TO MEET MARINE CORPS FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS.  COMMENCING WITH THE FY11-15 TIP, C 4611 BEGAN TASKING REQUIREMENT SPONSORS TO SUBMIT THEIR REQUIREMENTS APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO THE TIP CONFERENCE.  THE PURPOSE OF THE EARLIER SUBMISSION IS TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT TIME FOR C 4611 TO CONDUCT REQUIREMENT VALIDATION ANALYSIS PRIOR TO THE CONFERENCE AND TO USE THE CONFERENCE AS THE VEHICLE FOR FINALIZING MOST REQUIREMENTS, RATHER THAN AS THE VEHICLE FOR GATHERING THEM.  EARLY SUBMISSION HAS THE ADDED BENEFIT OF ENABLING TECOM TO SHORTEN THE CONFERENCE LENGTH FROM FIVE DAYS TO THREE DAYS.
