United States Security Cooperation Office Marks Six Years of Engagements with Kazakhstan’s Non-Commissioned Officer Corps to Improve Effectiveness of Military Training & Operations
Since 2015, SCO-Kazakhstan has facilitated four military training teams and multiple engagements to improve the effectiveness and organizational capacity for Kazakhstan’s Non-Commissioned Officer Corps.
The first military training event took place six years ago in Schuchinsk, where the United States Army Security Assistance Training Management Organization (USASATMO) team conducted a 4-week Drill Instructor Course to certify the “first ever” Kazakhstani Drill Instructors.

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) For the first time in nearly 100 years, an integrated company of male and female recruits at MCRD San Diego are about to begin their journey into becoming Marines.
These future Marines will be led by graduates from MCRD s first ever integrated Drill Instructor Course. Now the mission of the course is to screen, train, and further develp leadership and command presence of selected Marines, in order to successfully perform duties of a drill instructor.
The plan is part of a “test run” as the U.S. Marine Corps experiments with ways to end its practice of separating recruits into male and female boot camps.
Until now, female recruits were only training at Parris Island in South Carolina. There have been nine integrated companies trained at that facility over the past year.
A congressional mandate to make entry-level training at both the Parris Island and MCRD San Diego facilities co-ed calls for the practice of separating boot camp groups by gender to end within the next decade, so this company coming to San Diego is another step in that direction.
