UNCLASSIFIED// ROUTINE R 011723Z SEP 20 MID510001690218U FM CNO WASHINGTON DC TO NAVADMIN INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC BT UNCLAS NAVADMIN 240/20 PASS TO OFFICE CODES: FM CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// INFO CNO WASHINGTON DC//N1// MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTION DC/N1/SEP// SUBJ/FISCAL YEAR 2021 GENERAL MILITARY TRAINING REQUIREMENTS// REF/A/DOC/OSD/DODI 1322.31/20FEB2020// REF/B/MSG/CNO WASHINGTON DC/191539ZJUL16// NARR/REF A IS DOD INSTRUCTION 1322.21, COMMON MILITARY TRAINING. REF B IS NAVADMIN 161/16, U.S. NAVY FINANCIAL LITERACY EDUCATION IMPLEMENTATION PLAN.// RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces General Military Training (GMT) requirements for fiscal year (FY) 2021. In line with reference (a), the Navy has minimized the number of mandatory GMT training topics to empower commanders to decide what training their personnel should receive and how often they should receive it. Commanding Officers (CO) should review the Command Discretion GMT list to determine the frequency and method of additional training appropriate for their command. 2. FY-21 Mandatory GMT Requirements a. Mandatory GMT must be completed by all military personnel in the fiscal year. b. The following Mandatory GMT is required to be completed in FY-21: (1) Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) Awareness. (2) Cyber Awareness Challenge. (3) Counterintelligence Awareness and Reporting. (4) Records Management. (5) Suicide Prevention. c. Personnel with less than 3 years of time-in-service must also complete Antiterrorism Level 1 training annually. For personnel with greater than 3 years of time-in-service, Antiterrorism Level 1 is now a triennial requirement and will be mandated for all hands in FY-22. d. Commands may elect to complete Cyber Awareness Challenge training using instructor-led and/or computer-based methods. e. Privacy Act training is required biennially and will be mandated for all hands in FY-22. f. Combating Trafficking in Persons training is required within 1 year of initial entry of service. g. The recommended method of delivery for SAPR and Suicide Prevention annual training is via face-to-face, small group facilitated discussions. While this remains the most effective lesson delivery method, this NAVADMIN authorizes COs to adapt or modify FY-21 SAPR and Suicide Prevention GMT delivery methods consistent with coronavirus mitigation procedures and operational commitments to meet these training requirements. If in-person, face-to-face delivery is not feasible, the preferred alternative is facilitated small group training via teleconference, Defense Collaboration Services or Commercial Virtual Remote Microsoft Teams. SAPR and Suicide Prevention training is not authorized with non- Department of Defense (DOD) approved collaborative technology (e.g. Facebook, Zoom, etc.). During this pandemic environment, facilitated small group training using approved video conferencing technology is considered *face-to-face,* fully meeting training requirements. Senior Commanders have the authority to issue guidance that is more restrictive to their subordinate commands. 3. FY-21 Command Discretion GMT a. Command Discretion GMT is not required at any specified periodicity, but may have situational requirements (i.e. initial entry, pre-deployment, career milestones, etc.). COs should train their personnel at a time and place that best meets their command and mission needs. b. COs may assign the following topics at their discretion: (1) Alcohol, Drugs and Tobacco Awareness. (2) Combating Trafficking in Persons. (3) Domestic Violence Prevention and Reporting. (4) Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare. (5) Energy Policy. (6) Equal Opportunity, Harassment and Resolution Options. (7) Hazing Policy and Prevention. (8) Operational Risk Management. (9) Operations Security. (10) Personal Financial Management. (11) Sexual Health and Responsibility. (12) Stress Management. (13) Traumatic Brain Injury. (14) Privacy Act. (15) Antiterrorism Level 1. (16) Tactical Combat Casualty Care All Service Member/ Tier 1. c. Financial Management training does not have a mandatory periodicity, but it is required at career touchpoints in line with reference (b). 4. Additional Information a. Detailed requirements for each topic are listed on the GMT webpage and should be reviewed thoroughly by commands prior to assigning training. The webpage provides topic-specific information such as: (1) Instructor and documentation requirements. (2) Training in combined military-civilian sessions. (3) Links to instructor guides and other training products. b. The GMT webpage can be found on the MyNavy Portal at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/general-skills-training/gmt/. c. Current SAPR and Suicide Prevention training materials are not designed for individual/self-study training and using methods other than facilitated, small group sessions will be challenging. Feedback, lessons learned or recommendations for more effective training delivery is encouraged. Please provide your recommendations or refer any questions to the following points of contact: (1) SAPR training: Ms. Andrea Verdino, N17, andrea.j.verdino@navy.mil. (2) Suicide Prevention training: Ms. Ruth Cassidy, N17, ruth.cassidy@navy.mil. (3) Training policy: CDR Benjamin Amdur, N13M7, benjamin.amdur1@navy.mil. d. All SAPR training materials are For Official Use Only. SAPR training material shall not be loaded onto publically accessible websites (e.g. YouTube, Facebook, etc.). Additionally, the following disclaimer should be added at the beginning of each SAPR training session that is not conducted in person: *We understand that participating in SAPR training can be difficult. If you need advocacy support at any time, please contact the on-call SARC/VA at [please insert contact information for the local Sexual Assault Response Center or Victims Advocate] or the DOD Safe helpline at www.safehelpline.org or 877-995-5247.* 5.
