- the Navy's sole remaining "boot camp" for new accession enlisted personnel, the Recruit Training Command, Great Lakes, Illinois
- Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps, also headquartered at NAS Pensacola

- Naval Education Training Professional Development Technology Center at NETPDTC Saufley Field, Florida
The Naval Education and Training Security Assistance Field Activity (NETSAFA) at NAS Pensacola is a NETC activity dedicated to the education and training of International Military Students attending training at US Navy Commands.
NETC previously had responsibility for the Naval Air Training Command (NATRACOM) under the Chief of Naval Air Training (CNATRA) at NAS Corpus Christi, Texas. In late 2007, NATRACOM and CNATRA was realigned under the Commander, Naval Air Forces (CNAF) at NAS North Island, California.

“In my state, on the basis of the separate but equal doctrine, we have made enormous strides over the years in the education of both races. Personally, I think it would have been sounder judgment to allow that progress to continue through the process of natural evolution. However, there is no point crying about spilt milk.”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“The want of education and moral training is the only real barrier that exists between the different classes of men. Nature, reason, and Christianity recognize no other. Pride may say Nay; but Pride was always a liar, and a great hater of the truth.”
—Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
“An actor must communicate his author’s given message—comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
