Where can I find information on security training for flight instructors (CFIs)?

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) have collaborated to create an online General Aviation Security course which may be used for initial and recurrent flight school security awareness training. For details, see TSA: Training and Exercises and AOPA’s Guide to TSA’s Alien Flight Training/Citizenship Validation Rule.
