The first step involves submitting an application, which includes providing relevant documentation to establish eligibility, such as identification, proof of employment, and compliance history.
TSA-approved security training is designed to educate applicants about federal security regulations, threat detection, and compliance requirements relevant to their roles.
The TSA certification process can take several weeks to months, depending on the complexity of the application, background checks, and the completion of training or assessments.
A security threat assessment evaluates an individual’s or business’s potential risk to transportation security and is a core component of the TSA certification process.
Once the process is complete, certification approval is granted, and the applicant receives guidelines to ensure ongoing compliance with TSA regulations.
