This is a formal assessment and confirmation by the competent aviation security authority that the person concerned still has the necessary qualifications to carry out the tasks assigned to them in an appropriate manner. This ensures that the required content is refreshed and that new content can be adequately taught.
• Airport operators and security service providers continuously train aviation security screeners after their training.
