“There were thirty-three of us in my graduating Naval Combat Systems Technician Training Plan (NCSTTP) class and we were a tight knit group. The knowledge we were provided at the Marine Institute was phenomenal.

When I began at MI, I knew nothing about technology. Now I know everything. The courses were in-depth and we learnt the material, but also the history behind it and how to apply it to real life situations.

There’s a distinct difference between knowing what you’re doing and understanding its functionality and relevance.”
