Prepare for the training site
Training & visits.
Coordinate reporting, site access and allocated facilities with your unit and the responsible site office before travel. Family support arrangements depend on your duty status.
Separate students from staff
Use the school’s administration rather than general garrison directions.
Staff officesAsk who books billeting
A Water Survival School course places billeting responsibility on students; do not generalize another course’s accommodation rules.
Course-specific exampleConfirm tenant instructions
FMTB East is a separate training organization on the campus.
FMTB EastStaff: use household relocation support
MCCS can help connect assigned households to local services.
Relocation resourcesPrepare school records if moving
For a household move, ask the receiving district which school serves the address and which records it needs. NC DPI lists Onslow military liaison contacts; a short course at Camp Johnson does not itself require a school transfer.
NC school supportConfirm the assigned school
Give the school or Personnel Administration Center your course and student/staff status. Ask for that program’s arrival point and after-hours contact; a Camp Johnson address alone does not identify the right check-in desk.
