GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  COMMANDING GENERAL (CG), TRAINING AND EDUCATION COMMAND (TECOM) SPONSORS THE ANNUAL TRAINING INPUT PLAN (TIP) REQUIREMENTS WORKING GROUP, AND THE TECOM FORMAL SCHOOL QUOTA REQUIREMENTS MANAGEMENT BRANCH (FSQRMB), MAGTF TRAINING AND EDUCATION STANDARDS DIVISION (C 465) ACTS AS THE CG'S AGENT TO CONDUCT THE TIP REQUIREMENTS WORKING GROUP.  THE FY15 THROUGH FY19 TIP REQUIREMENTS WORKING GROUP WILL BE CONDUCTED FROM TUESDAY, 4 MARCH 2014 THROUGH THURSDAY, 6 MARCH 2014 AT LIVERSEDGE HALL (BLDG 15), MARINE CORPS BASE, QUANTICO, VIRGINIA.  THIS MESSAGE PROVIDES PRELIMINARY WORKING GROUP GUIDANCE, AS WELL AS GUIDANCE FOR SPONSORS' SUBMISSION OF FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS IN PREPARATION FOR THE TIP REQUIREMENTS WORKING GROUP.
2.  BACKGROUND
A.  PER REFERENCES A AND B, 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 C, 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 THE MARINE CORPS' FORMAL SCHOOL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS.  COMMENCING WITH THE FY11-FY15 TIP, FSQRMB BEGAN TASKING RQMT SPONSORS TO SUBMIT THEIR RQMTS APPROXIMATELY TWO MONTHS PRIOR TO THE TIP REQUIREMENTS WORKING GROUP.  THE PURPOSE OF THE EARLIER SUBMISSION IS TO PROVIDE SUFFICIENT TIME FOR FSQRMB TO CONDUCT REQUIREMENT VALIDATION ANALYSIS PRIOR TO THE WORKING GROUP MEETING AND TO USE THE WORKING GROUP MEETING 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 REDUCE THE TIME REQUIRED TO CONDUCT THE WORKING GROUP.
