In order to protect the health and welfare of the force, it is essential to take steps that mitigate the risk for contracting and spreading COVID19. As part of that effort, FMTB-W is taking action to limit exposure to the virus for students, FMTB-W staff and their families, and others who utilize Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton. Some of those actions require temporary, conditions-based modifications to FMTB-W graduations which follow here:
At present, the FMST graduation ceremony will be restricted to student and staff. However, efforts will be made to make the ceremony viewable on-line via the FMTB-W Facebook Page.
We will continue to monitor CDC and Navy Marine Corps Public Health Center updates and actively working to implement actions that support the health of our students. For the most up-to-date information on COVID-19, please visit the following links:
