Cleared Contractors and Annual Security Awareness Training


Cleared contractors are required to brief their cleared employees every year. It’s easy when there is a Facility Security Officer (FSO) on site. However, companies consisting of one to a few hundred employees may have FSOs designated in addition to regular duties. COOs, engineers, CFOs, HR and other professionals don’t have time to create and execute training while performing on contract.
That’s where Red Bike Publishing can help.
An FSO can spend several hours designing training. At $35.00 per manager work hour, that could end up costing at least $150.00, not including the costs associated with brining the FSO off a contract. Our low cost, high value training package allows you to concentrate on your core competencies while we provide your required training. Our NISPOM Training contains requirements for the Annual Security Awareness and Initial Security Training. Just download our slides and lead the discussion, the notes are already filled out and ready to read.


FSOs have a huge responsibility to protect classified information. As such, these FSOs may be owners, engineers, human resources or appointed employees with other additional duties. If you are an appointed FSO with other duties, you might be just too busy to create a training program. Red Bike Publishing can help. We’ve created an easy to use presentation that you can download and present. Notes are available straight from the NISPOM. You can read them word for word or you can tailor the presentation to meet your organizational needs. This presentation will help you meet the National Industrial Security Program (NISPOM) and Defense Security Services (DSS) Requirements. Take a look at the sample presentations on the side of the page.
NISPOM Initial Security Training /Refresher Security Training.
The main presentation is great for initial training or for refresher annual security awareness training required of all cleared employees. (NISPOM 3-103 and 3-104).
When you invest with this training program you will receive a link for the main presentation and a quarterly email link for the topical training. Topics include NISPOM requirements:
  • Threat Awareness
  • Defensive Training (foreign travel briefing)
  • Overview of the Security Classification System
  • Employee Reporting Obligations and Requirements
  • Security Procedures and Duties Applicable to the Employee’s Job
  • Marking Classified Material
  • Safeguarding Classified Material
  • Control and Accountability
  • Storage and equipment
  • Transmission
  • Original Classification Authority
  • Performing on Classified Contracts
