GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  COMMANDING GENERAL (CG), TRAINING AND EDUCATION COMMAND (TECOM) SPONSORS THE ANNUAL TRAINING INPUT PLAN (TIP) CONFERENCE, AND THE TECOM FORMAL SCHOOL QUOTA REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT BRANCH (FSQRMB), MARINE AIR GROUND TASK FORCE (MAGTF) TRAINING AND EDUCATION STANDARDS DIVISION (C 465) ACTS AS THE CG'S AGENT TO CONDUCT TIP CONFERENCES.  THE FY 2014-2018 TIP CONFERENCE WILL BE CONDUCTED FROM TUESDAY, 5 MARCH 2013 THROUGH THURSDAY, 7 MARCH 2013 AT LIVERSEDGE HALL (BLDG 15), MARINE CORPS BASE, QUANTICO, VIRGINIA.  THIS MESSAGE EXPANDS ON REF A, AND IT PROVIDES FINAL CONFERENCE GUIDANCE, AS WELL AS GUIDANCE FOR SPONSORS' SUBMISSION OF FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING RQMTS IN PREPARATION FOR THE TIP CONFERENCE.
2.  BACKGROUND
A.  PER REFERENCES B AND C, FSQRMB 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 FY 11-15 TIP, FSQRMB BEGAN TASKING REQUIREMENT (RQMT) SPONSORS TO SUBMIT THEIR RQMTS APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO THE TIP CONFERENCE.  THE PURPOSE OF THE EARLIER SUBMISSION IS TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT TIME FOR FSQRMB 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.
B.  WHILE THE FOLLOWING LIST OF FORMAL SCHOOL REQUIREMENT SPONSORS IS NOT EXHAUSTIVE, IT CAPTURES THE MAJOR MARINE CORPS REQUIREMENT SPONSOR ORGANIZATIONS WITH REQUIREMENTS SUBMITTED FOR THE FY 13-17
