Engineering Publishes Its Security Awareness Training Course
Government contractors live in an environment where the potential exists for
them to work with, or be exposed to, sensitive or classified information.
For some, access and use of this type of data is a daily occurrence. For
others, access or exposure to sensitive or classified materials is an event
which occurs rarely, if ever. But, for all of us, it is essential we
understand this environment, our responsibilities to protect sensitive and
classified materials, and the threats we may become exposed to by
organizations
and people that want access to information. Even if you work at a government
site and have already received your annual training, please take a moment to
review our course. None of us can ever be reminded enough about security
issues.
Like many of
our other employee training topics, we have chosen to post this training
overview on our public web site. We hope our employees and visitors find
the training useful and informative.

AOCE's Ethics Training
Course
Ethics is a
subject often mentioned in business and government contract environments.
Like Safety and Security, it is a subject that can never receive too much
attention. The link below will take you to a brief Ethics presentation
that will provide you with an overview of how Ethics apply to our business
environment. (This is a fairly large presentation, so you may find it
faster to download the file to your computer, rather than run the course across
the Internet.) Although this presentation is designed to keep our
employees informed on the topic of Ethics, we believe it can also be very useful
to other organizations. So, we have chosen to post this training overview
on our public web site. We hope the people that view this training, our
employees and visitors alike, find the short session both informative and
enjoyable.
