Program Overview

Maritime Security Awareness

Course Description

In post-9/11 reality, maritime regulations require that all maritime facility employees receive security training. This includes not just full-time employees but part-time and contractor workers as well. This 4-hour course responds to that need by satisfying the content requirements of 33 CFR 105.215.

Topics include:

• MARSEC levels
• Recognition and detection of dangerous substances and devices
• Recognition of characteristics and behavioral patterns of persons who are likely to threaten security
• Techniques used to circumvent security measures, and relevant aspects of the TWIC program and how to carry them out.

By working with your Facility Security Officer, this course can be customized into a site-specific course designed around the operations at your facility and your facility security plan.
