For many, SERE Level A training meets the minimum threshold for troops to operate in all combatant commands across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To reduce the burden on the Corps, Marines preparing to deploy can now complete that basic requirement with a new SERE Level A Training Support Package, or TSP, in lieu of the computer-based course that can take upward of six hours to complete, according to a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marines.mil\/News\/Messages\/Messages-Display\/Article\/1529913\/survival-evasion-resistance-and-escape-level-a-training-support-package-announc\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\">MARADMIN <\/a>posted Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new TSP SERE training \u201cenables deploying units to self-train SERE Level A in an instructor guided group setting,\u201d the MARADMIN reads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before, Marines needing to complete this requirement had to finish a lengthy online course called SERE 100.2 that the Corps described in the MARADMIN as \u201cproblematic for large units and units with limited home station computer access and limited bandwidth situations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To alleviate this training burden Marine Corps Training and Education Command, or TECOM, teamed up with U.S. Army Forces Command and the Joint Personnel Recovery Agency to develop the new SERE TSP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are various levels of SERE training and military personnel only need to attend the appropriate level of course based on their potential risk of being captured by hostile forces. Level A is considered basic, while Level C is generally for special operations forces and aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2707\" height=\"1807\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10901\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg 2707w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg?resize=768,513 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg?resize=1024,684 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1025 1536w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/635899184918282320-february-1-frontlines-4jpg.jpg?resize=2048,1367 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2707px) 100vw, 2707px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Senior Airman Ian Kuhn, a survival, evasion, resistance, and escape (SERE) instructor with the 103rd Rescue Squadron, demonstrates how to build a concealed shelter during a combat and water survival training course at Homestead Air Reserve Base, Fla., Jan. 20, 2016.
