The following clarifications regarding professional military education (PME) are provided specific to this board and all PME must be completed prior to the board convening for consideration. 2.a. Marines who complete the Marine Corps eLearning Ecosystem (MCeLE) EPME5000 Course shall be considered qualified for the purposes of selection to SSgt. Marines who fail to complete the MCeLE Course prior to the board convene date will be ineligible and incur a failure of selection. 2.b. Those who complete any of the additional courses below will be considered higher qualified than those Marines that have only completed the MCeLE course. 2.b.1. Resident Sergeants Course (T4M). 2.b.2. Sergeants Course Seminar (315). 2.b.3. Reserve Sergeants Course (CFF), if previously attached to the Selected Marine Corps Reserve (SMCR). 2.c.

Obligated Service 3.a. Marines with an end of active service (EAS) date prior to 12 July 2026 on the date the board convenes will be administratively deleted, removed from consideration, and incur a failure of selection. To avoid this, upon release of this MARADMIN Marines are authorized to submit the necessary reenlistment or extension request to gain additional service beyond the 12 July 2026 EAS cut-off date. Cite this MARADMIN as the authority to locally extend Marines to satisfy EAS requirements for consideration. 3.b.
