 Testimonial: “I'd like to take a moment to tell you how much new information I got out of your recent class. I have been the Company Security Officer for Cal Dive International now for almost two years. I have written security assessments and plans for all our vessels requiring plans. I have conducted security training and accompanied DNV and US Coast Guard inspectors as they've completed security verification audits in our fleet. I have attended a Ship Security Officer class prior to your class. I reaped so much more information about actual procedures from your class that I didn't have before. As with your upcoming class at our facility for my Port Facility Security Officer and other employees, I would recommend you and your class to anyone.”– Cal Dive International

Schedule a training, seminar or workshop Security Plan Development Workshop
As the old saying goes, “If you want something done right, do it yourself.” But not everyone has the time or expertise. This workshop was developed so that you can set aside two days and write your own security assessment and security plan for your facility or vessel. As many have come to find out, off-the-shelf security plans, or ones that are very vague, are extremely hard to implement. In this two-day workshop, you will conduct your own security assessments using a risk assessment tool, and then choose which mitigation strategies are appropriate to your facility or vessel and your specific threat scenarios. Best of all, you will fully understand exactly what is required under your security plan and why, and you will be able to defend it when challenged by inspectors and auditors. You will walk away from this workshop with a security plan, ready for submission to the Coast Guard for approval.

Discussions focus on the regulatory process, applicability, research, implementation strategies, and achieving buy-in from all levels. Accountability and legal implications of non-compliance for individuals, as well as the company, are also covered topics.

Leadership and Management for the Mariner
The role of the mariner is constantly evolving. In addition to the traditional roles and responsibilities, regulatory programs now require mariners to manage complicated safety and security programs. No longer is a captain’s job description solely to “drive the boat.” In most cases the master of the vessel is the key to compliance, or non-compliance, for the company. This course is specifically designed, through lectures and role playing, to train mariners in the responsibilities they hold as licensed mariners and masters of vessels, and to inspire the leadership that is required of today’s mariners in order to operate compliant and successful companies.

Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) Implementation and Enforcement Issues for Waterfront Facilities
The Transportation Security Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard are implementing a Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) program which will have a significant impact on many waterfront facilities. There are things that can be done to minimize the impact of the TWIC regulations that operators should be aware of. Topics to be covered will include: ensuring FSPs define the boundaries of the facility in accordance with the definition for a facility found in 33 CFR part 101, identifying maritime transportation related areas to be identified as “secure areas” (what can be excluded and what cannot), identifying any areas that were designated as “restricted areas” and ensuring that they are required to be designated based on an accurate facility security assessment, installing appropriate access control around the facility and “secure area,” ensuring any installations of the “secure area” access control will be made ready for future TWIC card reader machines, drafting TWIC escort procedures to be implemented as FSP amendments, identify and installing any security equipment that will be required to meet the approved “escort” procedures, what litigation protection can be achieved by selecting by DHS SAFTEY Act certified technologies, training all facility personnel with security duties in the TWIC requirements described in the TWIC final rule. As a result of implementing a proactive plan operators will benefit from reduced risk of loss of operation due to TWIC related problems, reduced risk of financial penalty due to non-compliance, reduced scrutiny by federal regulators by demonstrating commitment to long-term compliance.

Maritime Security for Enforcement Personnel
The course, designed specifically for U.S. Coast Guard enforcement personnel goes into great detail on the background of the threats, how the regulations came to be, the intent of the regulations, and other "big picture" issues. It also covers all of the required knowledge factors for CSO, VSO (SSO) and (P)FSO. The overall intent of this training is to provide regulatory inspectors a broad prospective of the overall importance of these regulations, as well as an in-depth knowledge of CSO, VSO and FSO training requirements in order to properly assess the level of training of those appointed as CSO, VSO (SSO) or (P)FSO. It is not a step by step examination of the regulations or ISPS code, but rather it provides background knowledge necessary to take a critical look at what the industry has implemented and determine if such measures meet the letter and intent of the regulations.
