2.E All class dates should be verified through the Marine Corps Training Information Management System (MCTIMS).

5. Duty Status Waiver Requests
5.A. Marines who are currently in a light or limited duty status may submit a duty status waiver request to attend the resident school.

5.A.3. The operational tempo of the parent unit or the individual Marine's personal schedule is not a consideration for requesting a duty status waiver.
5.A.4. Only the current or previous FY promotion board information will be used to estimate a Marine's potential promotion selection timeline.

5.C. Commands must email the completed Command Screening Checklist, duty status waiver request, and physician approved physical fitness plan to [email protected] to be considered for approval.
