As of January 18 (next Tuesday) all certified flights instructors and flight school staff currently providing any type of training to any type of student must complete the security awareness course. The deadline applies to all CFIs, whether or not they train foreign students.
Fortunately, the half-hour program is available online at http://download.tsa.dhs.gov/fssa/training/. At completion of the course, you can print out a certificate to retain as your record of completion. AOPA is also offering the training as part of its Flight Instructor Refresher Courses.
Current but inactive CFIs, as well as those with expired certificates, are also encouraged to complete the program. Active CFIs who miss the deadline should take the training as soon as possible.
