RMKS/1.  REF A PROMULGATES GMT AND NMT POLICY AND
PROCEDURES FOR ALL NAVY PERSONNEL.  GMT IS NON-OCCUPATIONAL
TRAINING REQUIRED PERIODICALLY FOR ALL NAVY PERSONNEL AT THE
COMMAND LEVEL.  NMT IS TRAINING FOR ALL ENLISTED PERSONNEL
DURING THEIR FIRST YEAR OF SERVICE FOLLOWING COMPLETION OF
RECRUIT TRAINING.  BOTH GMT AND NMT PROGRAMS USE STANDARDIZED
LESSON PLANS AND MATERIALS THAT ARE DESIGNED TO MEET COMMAND
TRAINING REQUIREMENTS WHILE REDUCING THE TRAINING PREPARATION
BURDEN.
 
2.  THE 12-HOUR ANNUAL GMT CURRICULUM IS DISTIBUTED VIA CD-ROM,
AND AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD FROM THE CNET WEBSITE
WWW.CNET.NAVY.MIL.  ADDITIONALLY, FLEET AND TYPE COMMANDERS MAY
ISSUE THEIR OWN ORGANIZATIONAL TRAINING REQUIREMENTS BASED ON
THE NEEDS OF THEIR PLATFORMS AND PERSONNEL.
 
3.  NMT PROVIDES INSTRUCTION IN ESSENTIAL MILITARY KNOWLEDGE AND
SKILLS TO HELP SAILORS TRANSITION FROM THE HIGHLY STRUCTURED
ENVIRONMENT OF RECRUIT TRAINING TO ONE OF PERSONAL
ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY.  ALL ENLISTED PERSONNEL WILL
COMPLETE THE NMT CORE CURRICULUM DURING APPRENTICE TRAINING OR
"A" SCHOOL.  ADDITIONAL NMT TOPICS ARE COMPLETED DURING FORMAL
SCHOOLS WHEN COURSE LENGTH PERMITS.  THE NMT CURRICULUM CAN BE
DOWNLOADED FROM THE CNET WEBSITE AT WWW.CNET.NAVY.MIL FOR USE BY
COMMANDS OUTSIDE NAVEDTRACOM.  THE NMT LESSONS ARE AN EXCELLENT
RESOURCE THAT ALL COMMANDS CAN TAILOR TO THEIR OWN SITUATIONS,
COMPLEMENTING LEADERSHIP AND MENTORING TO ROUND OUT THEIR
SAILORS' MILITARY TRAINING DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF SERVICE.
 
4.  THE GMT AND NMT PROGRAMS PROVIDE THE NECESSARY TOOLS FOR
CONTINUING THE MILITARY TRAINING PROCESS THAT IS ESSENTIAL TO
THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF ALL NAVY PERSONNEL.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ENHANCING THE GMT AND NMT PROGRAMS ARE
ENCOURAGED.  CNET POC FOR BOTH PROGRAMS IS MR. BARRY HOAG,
LEAD112, AT COMM (850) 452-4197, DSN 922. E-MAIL ADDRESS IS
BARRY.HOAG@CNET.NAVY.MIL.
