This MARADMIN supersedes any other information previously released regarding MCI requirement completion. 3.b. It is critical that eligible Marines ensure their record includes evidence of PME completion. Evidence of PME completion within a Marine's record is defined as the applicable school code in the Marine Corps Total Force System (MCTFS) and course completion certificate in the Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). 4. PME Waivers 4.a. Per references (c) and (d), all Marines who are serving or have served in a Special Duty Assignment (SDA) billet Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) of 0911, 8411, 8421, 8156, 0913, 8152, and 8154 will be exempt from completing either the Resident Sergeants School, the Sergeants School Seminar Distance Education Program, or Resident Two-Week Reserve Sergeants School PME courses for a period not to exceed 365 days upon re-assignment from the SDA tour.

All Sgts who have been properly recommended for Accelerated Promotion on fitness reports with periods ending between 17 July 2023 through 16 April 2024 will be considered in the below zone with the Marines in their MOS/OccFld who met the established time in grade and time in service cutoff for promotion consideration. Identification and eligibility of these Marines are contingent upon compliance with reporting procedures outlined in reference (h) and the timely receipt of the fitness reports by the CMC (MMPB-23), Records and Performance, Performance Evaluation Unit, within 30 days after the end of the reporting period. 6. Commanders Responsibilities. Paragraph 3102.2 of reference (e) outlines commander responsibilities related to assisting Marines prior to the board convening however, significant items to concentrate on are: 6.a. Promotion selection boards will honor a Marine's request not to be selected and the Marine will incur a failure of selection. This request does not make a Marine ineligible for subsequent PSBs. Ensure those eligible Marines who are voluntarily requesting not to be selected are counseled and that they submit their requests via naval letter correspondence to the board president NLT 6 April 2024. 6.b. Ensure all reporting officials comply with the fitness report timelines and assist Marines in correcting incomplete fitness reports and/or corrections to fitness reports in accordance with the procedures outlined in reference (h). 6.c. Promptly report, via naval correspondence, to CMC (MMPB-11), Enlisted Promotions Unit, any approved MOS changes that occur during the board, this includes reporting failures of MOS producing schools. 6.d. Promptly report, via naval correspondence, to CMC (MMPB-11) any Marine who is the subject of completed disciplinary action (by military or civilian authorities) not previously reported on earlier fitness reports. Disciplinary action is considered "complete" when convening authority action is adjudicated and reported by unit diary, court-martial results of trial are released by military justice officer, a Marine is found guilty at Non-Judicial Punishment (NJP) and punishment is reported on unit diary, or civilian court proceeding or counseling documentation is placed in Marine's OMPF. Naval correspondence must give a detailed account of the matter, whether the action occurred prior to the convening of the board, during the board, or while the Marine was a member of a previous command as well as regarding any Marine who is administratively reduced, discharged, or assigned to the Body Composition Program (BCP). 7. Marine Responsibilities 7.a. Ensure the accuracy of data elements in MCTFS regardless of zone. Specific data elements include, but are not limited to DOR, AFADBD, PME, service schools, billet description, PMOS, IMOS, training scores, personal awards, assignment to and removal from the BCP. 7.b. Confirm the accuracy and completeness of OMPF and Master Brief Sheet (MBS) by immediately conducting a self-audit. 7.b.1. It is imperative that documents submitted for inclusion in the OMPF after the publishing of this MARADMIN be received by CMC (MMPB-22), Records Management Unit, NLT 6 April 2024. 7.b.2. Additional information is available on the CMC (MMPB-22) home page or for OMPF inquiries and document submission points of contact are located in paragraph 15. 7.c. Marines concerned with specific aspects of their record may contact a career counselor. Additional information is available on the CMC (MMPB-24), Active Component Officer and Enlisted Career Counseling Unit, home page or inquiries can be directed to the points of contact located in paragraph 15. 7.d. Marines may submit any information or material they deem important for consideration to the president of the board. 7.d.1. Personal correspondence to the board must be submitted via naval correspondence and must be addressed to President, FY24 SSgt PSB, be from the eligible Marine, and be personally signed by the Marine.

Personal communication to the board must be received NLT 2359, 6 April 2024 in accordance with reference (a). See paragraph 15 for physical and e-mail address. 7.d.3. The preferred delivery method is to scan documents and submit via e-mail directly to the organizational mailbox for CMC (MMPB-11). Ensure the e-mail subject line reads "Update Material for FY24 SSgt PSB". Properly label file attachments as (EDIPI_LNAME_ltrtoboard). If more than one file attachment is applicable, label additional files using arabic numerals enclosed in parenthesis, i.e. EDIPI_LNAME_ltrtoboard (2). 7.d.4. Communications sent via priority or next day U.S. Mail, are not delivered directly to Harry Lee Hall. Therefore, anticipate a 2-3 day lag time for further delivery. Commercial next-day carriers deliver directly to Harry Lee Hall, excluding weekends and holidays. 7.d.5. Material sent to the president of the board does not become part of a Marine's OMPF. Personal correspondence sent to the board is destroyed upon final approval of the board. 7.d.6. Marines are personally responsible for ensuring CMC (MMPB-11) has physically or electronically received their update material by the deadline. Marines can contact CMC (MMPB-11) if they have not received receipt confirmation within one week of the convening date of the board. 7.d.7.

Untimely requests for consideration based on prior service will be returned without action. 9. Feeder MOS chart.
