    Description

    SEA TSA K9 - volunteer decoy opportunity

    Transportation Security Administration regularly evaluates screening procedures in order to stay ahead of evolving threats. As one of the TSA's many layers of security, the Passenger Screening Canine Program is no exception to the rule. In order to ensure canines are always prepared for real time threats, the TSA continuously trains and tests the canines' abilities.

    In support of this training, the TSA at SeaTac Airport is in need of volunteer decoys. Volunteers will serve as mock traveling passengers and participate in training scenarios that resemble an everyday traveling environment.

    Decoys provide support by aiding in reality-based training drills and scenarios. Your role as a decoy volunteer will be to carry a concealed training aid and participate in real life airport activities in areas where a Passenger Screening Canine Team is conducting their search activity.
