This webinar provides an introduction to the requirements and processes for obtaining a Personnel Security Clearance (PCL) for federal contractors. It covers the three main PCL types, eligibility factors, the SF-86 questionnaire, and the Personnel Vetting Questionnaire. Participants will learn about the PCL review process, including background investigation, polygraphs, and credit/medical checks, as well as the approval process, interim vs. final PCLs, and appeal options. The session also addresses maintaining PCLs and the government’s shift toward continuous vetting.
