FSO Professional Development

While we do excel at NISPOM Compliance and FSO Consultation, we do provide resources for your FSO’s professional development. If you desire increasing your knowledge as an FSO, plese see ouir books and products. 

Did you know that Facility Security Officers, NISPOM Compliance Officers and consultants command six figure salaries?

It’s incredible that the profession exists, but without a formal education pathway. No college courses and the only training available is through government websites or joining professional organizations.

We want to change that with our courses, books and material.

Perfect for those who want a path to FSO or those appointed as FSOs. This option is for FSOs and those who want to become FSOs and who want to develop a clear path to NISPOM compliance and the education to back it.

This FSO professional development opportunity provides Indepth NISPOM compliance and FSO tasks training and templates to prepare you to become FSOs.

Those who are already FSOs train with our products for:

  • Professional development
  • Certification
  • Continuing Education Unit requirements
  • NISPOM compliance

We are pleased to provide one of very few FSO professional development opportunities.

Even though Facility Security Officers, NISPOM Compliance Officers and consultants command six figure salaries, there are few paths to those positions.

Believe it or not, these are great careers, but many do not know how to get started. I use the concept of an FSO workbook to provide FSOs and other staff members with FSO professional development.

This professional development also answers questions that so many have asked:

  • How do I become an FSO?
    • These books and training resources break down some basic skills and how to acquire them
  • How do I grow in my career?
    • We provide training and certification opportunities that will help you establish credibility.

Our professional development plan covers the following topics:

  • FSO Workbook and security reviews
  • NISPOM foundation
  • Developing education goals
  • Engaging with professional development opportunities
  • Creating influence and credibility in the community
  • Becoming invaluable to your organization

Books for FSO Professional Development

At the very least, all FSOs should have a copy of NISPOM.  

But why stop there. This is your one stop shop for FSO and NISPOM compliance books. 

When I became an FSO, I quickly realized that I had stumbled into something good. Stumbled because there is no career path. Additionally there are no security books based on NISPOM and I had to go outside of the community to get books and resources.

I added another step for my goal of changing our industry. I decided that in addition to starting a publishing company to provide print NISPOMs, that I would write books for FSOs. Books that provided real life help in understanding NISPOM.

I accomplished this goal within a few years of making it and it felt good.

Now these books have stood the test of time through various updates and NISPOM changes as well as the newest CFR version.

Wouldn’t you like to meet your security goals too?

Here’s what I’ve written so far and have a few more books to write:

  • Insider’s Guide to Security Clearances
  • How to Get U.S. Government Contracts and Classified Work (a book about applying NISPOM in your organization)
  • Establishing an Insider Threat Program Under NISPOM
  • ISP and ISOC Master Exam Prep (even if you don’t want certification, this book is a whole lot of questions that will improve your understanding of NISPOM).
  • SFPC Master Exam Prep

Don’t you think an inexpensive book based on NISPOM would be a great start?

As I mentioned earlier, books about NISPOM do not exist. I had to buy books from other types of authors.

Now you have opportunities to buy books about your profession.

Wouldn’t you find it valuable to have a book about NISPOM written by someone who knows NISPOM?

  • NISPOM
  • ITAR
  • How To Get U.S. Government Contracts and Classified Work
  • Insider’s Guide to Security Clearances
  • ISP and ISOC Master Exam Prep
  • Establish an Insider Threat Program Under NISPOM

Gain an Absolutely Unfair Advantage with FSO Professional Development

Why develop your own training program when it’s already developed for you. Just assign training and collect the certificates.
