GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  Purpose.  This MARADMIN announces the closures of the Learning Resource Centers (LRC) located at multiple locations across the Marine Corps.
2.  Background.  For the past 23 years, the Marine Corps College of Distance Education and Training (CDET), Marine Corps University (MCU) has provided direct oversight over the Marine Corps Distance Learning Program (MCDLP), a Level III Information Technology Program of Record that consists of three major components:  Online courseware development; MarineNet architecture for delivery; and LRCs (computer classrooms) for Marines without a desktop or laptop to access the online courseware.  CDET has managed access via a service support contract that provides personnel (facilitators) to operate, manage and proctor as required online training at one of the 40 LRCs and importantly, account for, maintain and safeguard government furnished equipment.  The divestment of funding for the LRC decision package in Program Objective Memorandum-22 (POM-22) means the MCDLP can no longer provide the LRC facilitators.  The facilities that house the LRCs are part of the various base infrastructure; the computers are fielded assets from Training and Education Command (TECOM).  Bases and stations provide the lighting, electricity, heating and air and basic facilities upkeep for the LRCs.
2.  Timeline:  All LRCs will be closed for operation on 1 June 2022.
