The key to the [[SPARTAN-II]]s' seeming invincibility and matchlessness in combat has always been ~~'''~~their training~~'''~~, honing their finesse even outside of wearing [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR armor]], and, combined with their [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|augmentations]], making them superior in strength, speed, accuracy, reaction times, and intelligence to all other UNSC military personnel. Headquartered in a dedicated compound within the [[Reach FLEETCOM Military Complex|FLEETCOM Military Complex]] on [[Reach]], the Spartans' training was mainly orchestrated by [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez]], with the [[dumb AI|AI]] [[Déjà]] providing theoretical education in the [[Reach Naval Academy]].

During their first years of training, the Spartans were placed into situations and drills that pushed their abilities to their very limit and beyond. Their hard training was complemented with high-level education, which included mathematics, science, history, reading, writing, and military tactics. Although his training methodology was tough, even brutal in some respects, CPO Mendez always instilled discipline, honor, and respect into the Spartans. Over the course of their years of training, the Spartans learned and developed a [[Spartan signals|unique system of signals]] for use among themselves. During this time, [[John-117]] rose to be the ''de facto'' leader of the Spartans, with [[Kurt-051]], [[Jerome-092]] and [[Frederic-104]] identified as other emerging leaders.

The Spartan often trained in various locations across Reach's [[Highland Mountains]] surrounding the FLEETCOM compound; among these were [[Camp Hathcock]], [[Military Reservation 01478-B]] and the [[Military Wilderness Training Preserve]]. They were also taken to various offworld sites for specialized training, including [[Emerald Cove]] and the [[Chiron]] extreme-conditions facility over [[Mars]].

The Spartan-II training was ultimately cut short by the onset of the Human-Covenant War, and they were pushed into the field after only eight years of training. The original plan called for an additional two years of training.<ref>''[[Halo: Silent Storm]]''</ref>
