As you have may have already learned from the air forwarders you work with, if you are performing pick-up and/or transfer of outbound air cargo on behalf of forwarders (IACs) these changes affect you.

• As of Feb. 1, 2009, newly hired drivers, dispatchers and anyone else who has physical access to or is involved in coordinating the pick-up or transfer of cargo that will be tendered to an airline must have a new version of air cargo security training.
• By May 1, 2009, all your current drivers and other personnel involved in air cargo operations must be complete refresher training (re-training) in accord with these new requirement even if previously trained less than one year ago.
