Subj: COAST GUARD RESERVE — TRAINING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (CGR-TMS)
Ref: (a) Personnel & Pay Procedures Manual, PPCINST M1000.2 (series)
1. PURPOSE. This Instruction outlines the policies, responsibilities, and utilization of the
Coast Guard Reserve — Training Management System (CGR-TMS).
2. ACTION. All Coast Guard unit commanders, commanding officers, officers-in-charge,
deputy and assistant commandants, and chiefs of headquarters staff elements must comply
with the provisions of this Instruction. Internet release is authorized.
3. DIRECTIVES AFFECTED. None.
4. BACKGROUND. CGR-TMS is a top-down approach for planning and execution of training
for the Reserve Component (RC). Individual competency requirements, aligned with Service
contingency plans, are assigned to Reserve training positions on the Personnel Allowance
List (PAL). Annual RC training requirements are prioritized by District, Area, and Director
of Operational Logistics (DOL) Reserve managers who coordinate with Force Readiness
Command (FORCECOM) to identify and enroll individual reservists into training sessions.
This approach prioritizes requirements based on Service needs and ensures maximum
participation through advanced notification for reservists slated for resident training.
5. DISCLAIMER. This guidance is neither a substitute for applicable legal requirements, nor is
it a rule. It does provide operational guidance for Coast Guard personnel and is not intended
to impose legally binding requirements on any party outside the Coast Guard.
6. MAJOR CHANGES. None.
