Welcome to the PIV Administrator On-Line course
Welcome to USAccess, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) Role Administrator training. Identity management has become an important part of our homeland security since September 11th and it directly affects you, the federal employee and federal contractor.
Presidential Homeland Security Directive 12 established the criteria for an interoperable, personal identity verification program within the federal government.
The 9/11 Commission Report recommended screening people with biometric identifiers across agencies and governments as one of its global strategies to protect against terrorist attacks.
Your roles as PIV Credential Holder and Role Administrator are vitally important to the security of the nation, its assets, and its people. Each of us has an important personal role to fulfill in the credentialing process. By establishing an identity verification chain of trust, we will be working together to achieve a safer work environment and homeland.
