Background Investigation On-Line Training
Seminole, FL (PRWEB) June 13, 2007 -- In July of 2005, the Defense Department made the use of E-QIP mandatory for all of its contractors. Then in early 2006 OMB, the President's Office of Management and Budget, issued a directive requiring the top-seven clearance granting agencies (DOE, DOD, DHS, DOJ, DOC, DOT, and State) to be using E-QIP, which is now mandatory.
Except E-QIP training is lacking. Until now.
The explosive growth of the E-QIP system has created strong demand for training across the personnel security community and Trusted Learning (www.trustedlearning.com), has recently announced a new partnership with former OPM Project Manager and E-QIP expert, Andrew Kerr, to offer the first comprehensive series of E-QIP web-based training courses.
"For some time now there has been a need to make E-QIP training more widely available to a rapidly expanding and geographically dispersed customer base and the technology of Trusted Learning will now make on-line E-QIP training a reality," stated Kerr. "Rather than paying expensive travel costs to fly them into a classroom training, they will be able to learn everything they need right at their PC without missing work."
"OPM conducted around 1.7 million Federal background investigations in 2006, and I would say that at most only 15% to 20% of those would have been submitted via E-QIP," stated Andrew Kerr, former OPM Project Manager and E-QIP expert.
As the former trainer and project manager for E-QIP, Kerr helped design the current version of E-QIP and is well acquainted with the unique challenges that customers face when attempting to scrap their manual paper-based process in favor of E-QIP.
"The biggest problem with the paper forms is that people would submit information incorrectly or simply not fill out their forms completely. This then would require additional time reworking the form or a possible rejection once it reached OPM. Agencies that submitted paper forms usually had about a 20% rejection rate from OPM, but agencies that have migrated to E-QIP have seen their rejection rate drop to below 3%," stated Kerr.
Currently agencies have to contact OPM and wait for classroom training according to OPM's schedule or perform their own training if possible. The on-line E-QIP training solves that.
"Training has always been a key component to a successful implementation, but as the system grew, the reality was that traditional classroom-based training was not always available when customers needed it, especially if they were located outside of Washington, DC," said Kerr. "This is a high quality, low-cost alternative that should really fit the needs of customers."
