RMKS/1. DURING THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS, MARINES HAVE PARTICIPATED IN
SEVERAL LARGE-SCALE SURVEY EFFORTS. THE DOD-WIDE EXIT SURVEY, AS
WELL AS BOTH THE MARINE CORPS EXIT AND RETENTION SURVEY, HAVE
PROVIDED VALUABLE INSIGHT INTO THE ATTITUDES AND PERCEPTIONS OF
MARINES, GIVING SENIOR LEADERS BETTER INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT IS
IMPORTANT TO MARINES AND HOW CAREER DECISIONS ARE MADE.
2. TO BUILD UPON THE SUCCESS OF THESE EFFORTS, THE FY03 MARINE
CORPS EXIT SURVEY (MCES) WILL BE CONDUCTED ON-LINE BEGINNING
7 MAY 03. COMMANDERS WILL ENSURE THAT ALL MARINES VOLUNTARILY
SEPARATING DURING THIS PERIOD COMPLETE AN EXIT SURVEY BEFORE
DETACHING.
3. THE ONLINE SURVEY CAN BE FOUND AT
WWW.DRC-INSTANTACCESS.COM/MCES/ OR FOLLOW THE LINK TO THE EXIT SURVEY
FROM THE MANPOWER HOMEPAGE WWW.MANPOWER.USMC.MIL. THE SURVEY IS
EASY TO USE AND SHOULD TAKE NO MORE THAN 20 MINUTES TO COMPLETE.
UPON COMPLETION MARINES WILL PRINT THE LAST PAGE OF THE SURVEY
CONTAINING A DATE-TIME STAMP AND PRESENT THAT AT THEIR EXIT
INTERVIEW.
4. COMPREHENSIVE, HONEST SURVEY PARTICIPATION BY ALL MARINES IS
ESSENTIAL TO OUR ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND THE MOTIVATIONS OF OUR MARINES
AND TO INFLUENCE RETENTION SUCCESS.
5. THIS BULLETIN IS NOT APPLICABLE TO THE MARINE CORPS RESERVE.
